Forecasts

One Down (16/5), Poseidon (7/2), Turbo (6/1), Abbey Magic (13/2), Grange Walk (8/1), Bridge Native (10/1), Halsafari (11/1), Kitty Galore (12/1), The West's Awake (14/1), Rippon Lodge (100/1)

POSEIDON paid the price for a novicey mistake at Listowel a month ago but he has been shaping up quite well over fences and the assessor has taken a chance with his mark. Bridge Native arrives on the up and has to be feared.
