Forecasts

Tangental (2/1), Atlantian (9/2), Getaclan (6/1), Holiday In Kerry (7/1), Givemylovetorose (7/1), Leading The Way (11/1), Brownstone (12/1), Champagne Rebel (14/1), Short Story Long (28/1), Whip Whitaker (33/1), Kadys Dirha (33/1), St Denis's Well (40/1)

Lots of these arrive with something to prove so ATLANTIAN is fancied to go one better than when a good Navan second last time out and open his account. Getaclan is next on the list in her bid for a breakthorugh success ahead of Holiday In Kerry who is weighted to have a big say if back on his A-game.
