Forecasts

Wild Shot (11/4), Tom McGreevy (4/1), Crescent Lake (11/2), Name Me Famous (6/1), Feel Des Mottes (7/1), Scalino (8/1), One Last Tango (10/1), Craic Eile (14/1), Ardamir (40/1)

Somewhat surprisingly WILD SHOT's official rating in this sphere hasn't changed following his decisive breakthrough success in a Downpatrick maiden last month, and he may well have more to offer now venturing down the handicap route. Feel Des Mottes will offer stern resistance if fully tuned-up back from a break and Name Me Famous also enters calculations.
