Forecasts

Tune The Chello (4/1), Popong (5/1), Sapphire Lady (13/2), Funky Dady (7/1), Ya Boy Ya (7/1), Theatre World (17/2), Rapid Response (12/1), Mister Fogpatches (14/1), Dinny Lacey (14/1), Ask Nile (16/1), Cusp Of Carabelli (16/1), Uisce Beatha (20/1), Lord Lariat (20/1), Turbojet (25/1), Best Behavior (33/1), Choungaya (40/1)

TUNE THE CHELLO looked unlucky not to follow up her Limerick win at Tramore last month, just failing having pecked on landing at the last, so she's taken to gain compensation with further improvement on the cards. Funky Dady, Popong and Ya Boy Ya are a trio of potential threats.
