Forecasts

Saga Aravis (9/2), Rebelle Chaud (9/2), My Newbrook Rose (5/1), Milestone Prince (5/1), Autumn Crusade (5/1), Will You Win (7/1), Springfield Lodge (10/1), Lady Mccabe (10/1), Bright Sunbird (11/1), Kashi (11/1), Johnny Giro (12/1), Sand And Water (16/1), Well Polly (22/1), Colman's Courage (25/1), Ballyeden Lass (25/1), Pullyersocksup (50/1), Baby Bellini (50/1), Mahler Storm (80/1), Lady Maureen (80/1)

Preference is for SAGA ARAVIS, who is 0-10 but he showed enough when third here last month to suggest that a race of this nature will be well within his grasp. Milestone Prince shaped with encouragement back from a lengthy absence at Limerick in May and will be a threat if able to build on that. Will You Win is capable of a bold show and is also considered, along with Rebelle Chaud.
