Forecasts

Barnhill Rose (4/1), Heer At Dawn (9/2), Scarriff (11/2), Cactus Tree (11/2), Transition (7/1), Harbanaker (8/1), Indiana Rose (8/1), Eagle Terrace (8/1), Crystal Pool (9/1), Navorrosse (12/1), Brightburn (16/1), Rugaday (20/1), Thunder Rain (20/1), Talking Tough (22/1), Geological (25/1), Zaur (25/1), Well Suited (25/1), Approachcautiously (33/1)

CACTUS TREE was finishing best of all in a similar handicap at Fairyhouse last week and could be the way to go. Scarriff is interesting making her handicap debut with Colin Keane booked and Heer At Dawn is another likely contender.
