Forecasts

Eighty Eight (5/1), Bells On Her Toes (11/2), Lady Arwen (6/1), Princess Rajj (6/1), Helpmeout (7/1), Shaky Operator (8/1), Lechro (10/1), Jupiter Express (11/1), Cuala Bula (12/1), Breezy Zoff (16/1), Golden Ticket (16/1), Dromore Glory (18/1), Patrick Street (20/1), Arch Enemy (22/1), Miss Vizeun (25/1), Mister Tiddlywinks (25/1), Nawraq (33/1), Padjoy (33/1), Three Macks (50/1)

There should be more to come from JUPITER EXPRESS, who followed a good run with a below-par one when taking on his elders for the first time at Naas on Saturday. Against his own age group here and significantly back up in trip, Ken Condon's charge gets the tentative vote. Eighty Eight, Cuala Bula and Lady Arwen are just a handful of alternatives in an ultra-competitive contest.
