Forecasts

Harry's Bar (10/3), Rough Diamond (4/1), Dream Today (6/1), Ampeson (13/2), Final Voyage (15/2), Strong Johnson (10/1), Sister Rosetta (10/1), Rocky Dreams (12/1), Arcanears (16/1), Adams Barbour (22/1), Sister Lola (25/1), Anatoli (33/1), No Speed Limit (33/1)

Though below par of late, DREAM TODAY was successful over C&D off this mark on his latest visit here in December and he gets the nod in what looks a wide-open handicap. There are dangers aplenty, headed by Final Voyage, who is 5-11 on the all-weather and shaped encouragingly on return/debut for new yard at Cork in April. Sister Rosetta followed her Naas success with a solid effort in defeat at the Curragh on Saturday and will be a threat if turned out again, while Rough Diamond also has claims.
