Forecasts

Lord Gillygooley (2/1), Mullaghmore Wave (5/1), Saeer (13/2), Not So Simple (7/1), Ruler Of Dubai (8/1), Dalileo (8/1), Oskar High (11/1), She'stherightone (14/1), Getaday (14/1), Satin Sun (14/1), Double Jubilee (16/1), Jetango (20/1), Golden Glen (25/1), Rocky's Howya (25/1), Rose Milan (25/1), Celtic Dancer (40/1), Drimsree Lad (50/1), Treasure Mountain (66/1), Tribelle (80/1)

MULLAGHMORE WAVE and Lord Gillygooley are both 6-y-os heading in the right direction and are possibly the pair to focus on, with a narrow preference for the former with the step up to 3m a possible catalyst for further improvement. Gordon Elliott's Saeer may prove best of the remainder.
