Forecasts

Adonis (2/1), Temple Of Artemis (11/4), Herring Island (10/3), The Grey Wizard (13/2), Ninja (17/2), Porto Ercole (14/1), Barud (16/1), Glory Daze (25/1), Warren Beach (50/1), Inchturk (50/1), Fanore (66/1), Ta Na La (66/1), Beescatty (80/1), Gudrun Genberg (100/1), Sioux Princess (300/1), Keen To Learn (300/1)

TEMPLE OF ARTEMIS looks an excellent prospect for longer trips next season but, in the short term, he showed more than enough on debut at the Curragh to think he can land a race of this nature. His stablemate Ninja looks the pick of the newcomers and Herring Island also arrives on the back of a promising start, so he's considered.
