Forecasts

River Derwent (4/1), Imposing Supreme (9/2), Jungle Cove (9/2), Sherkin Island (5/1), Dream Tale (11/2), Amazed By Grace (9/1), Casanova (11/1), Black Cat Bobby (12/1), Dedillon (12/1), Doolin Dancer (14/1), Theophile (22/1), Rebel Tale (28/1)

The unexposed RIVER DERWENT took a step forward when opening his account on debut for new connections at Leopardstown last month and, with the promise of better to come now pitched into a handicap, he looks the way to go. Sherkin Island is another unknown quantity and is feared most following her cosy maiden success here. Amazed By Grace, Jungle Cove and Imposing Supreme are live each-way players.
