Forecasts

Derrinlaur (3/1), Beret Rouge (16/5), Vischio (4/1), Star Of Burma (5/1), Kannoor (8/1), Molly Kaye (12/1), Storm Steps (14/1), Whatcouldhavebeen (14/1), Secret Sea (14/1), Franno (16/1), Stellify (16/1), Strange Notions (16/1), Room To Roam (25/1), Abraham (28/1), Rock On Pedro (28/1), Morning Skye (40/1), Queen Of Oriel (80/1)

Dual bumper winner BERET ROUGE has been handed a potentially lenient mark for this handicap debut and it will look significant if she's strong in the betting. The Willie Mullins-trained mare should be spot-on following an encouraging effort over hurdles when returning from a six-month break at Ballinrobe in April. Derrinlaur will surely be in the mix if responding well to the first-time blinkers, while Secret Sea and Vischio both make each-way appeal, too.
