Forecasts

Summer Snow (3/1), Slieve Binnian (9/2), Static Charge (6/1), Water Mint (15/2), Duke Of Leggagh (9/1), Hilltop's Bear (10/1), Fendi (12/1), Reigles (12/1), Rhythm King (16/1), Saoibh (16/1), Where R U Now Bob (25/1), Orchis (28/1), Calamint (33/1), Ulaffinatmeboy (40/1), Glyde Ranger (50/1)

A number holding claims in the opener and it could pay to side with SUMMER SNOW who shaped well with a view to tackling this longer trip when fifth at Navan (5.8f) 2 weeks ago and her rider takes off a very handy 7 lb here. Reigles, on the back of her Bellewstown victory, rates the chief danger, ahead of Static Charge.
