Forecasts

Rick Dalton (11/10), Moe Sedway (2/1), Elephant John (13/2), Pollanassa (15/2), Apologise (17/2), Danesfort (14/1), I Know I Can (40/1), Boomerang Bill (50/1), Fastnet Breeze (50/1), Coushty (100/1), All Aboard (100/1), Black Leaf (150/1), Surviving Murmansk (200/1), Ballykeeran (200/1), Flaming Light (250/1)

MOE SEDWAY and Rick Dalton have both showed fairly useful form to date and look the pair to focus on, the former narrowly shading the vote in receipt of 6 lb from the latter. Elephant John may emerge best of the remainder.
