Forecasts

Lady Leanora (7/2), The Mpex Kid (7/2), Plunkett (9/2), Take My Hand (7/1), Hot Bell (11/1), Accessory (11/1), Derry Lad (12/1), Plugged In (12/1), Navorrosse (16/1), Colleen's Prince (16/1), Drummer (18/1), Angel's Trumpet (18/1), Dutch Schaefer (20/1), Capla Knight (22/1), Edge Of My Seat (25/1), Nepali (25/1), I Doubt That (33/1), Numidia (40/1), Barnhill Rose (50/1)

THE MPEX KID bounced back to something like his best when a narrow winner at Dundalk 12 days ago and is potentially very well treated back on turf off 6 lb lower. Derry Lad remains unexposed after his win here in October and is next best ahead of Hot Bell.
