Forecasts

Aunty Audrey (4/1), Beechmount Maisie (9/2), Tom McGreevy (6/1), Gallic Boy (13/2), Close Enough (8/1), Where's Bunny (8/1), Boston Brahmin (10/1), Brehon Star (12/1), Elmount (12/1), I'vedoneitall (12/1), Fainche (16/1), Caddy Shack (18/1), Ocodango Boy (28/1), Naomh Moling (33/1), Boola Belle (33/1)

Fit from a spin on the Flat at Gowran just 4 days ago, previous course winner AUNTY AUDREY gets the tentative vote to notch a third success over timber. Beechmount Maisie, Close Enough and Where's Bunny are just a handful of possible alternatives in a race where cases can be made for many.
