Forecasts

Collective Power (2/1), Inishmot Prince (16/5), Shabaaby (13/2), Tai Sing Yeh (9/1), Bonny Power (12/1), Aloysius Lilius (16/1), Gidwa (16/1), Aurora Nova (18/1), Dun Na Sead (20/1), Eglish (22/1), Alphonse Karr (25/1), Shining Crystal (33/1), Pastel Power (125/1), Midnight Treasure (125/1), Mna Na Mhi (125/1)

COLLECTIVE POWER shaped well when second over C&D last time and is taken to go one better from a handy draw in 5. Last month's C&D scorer Shabaaby heads the dangers along with the selection's stablemate Bonny Power, who got off the mark over C&D recently.
