Forecasts

Lisnagar Fortune (8/11), Japers Jack (11/4), Present Soldier (11/2), Gold Bullion (7/1), Ideal Du Tabert (8/1), Barbary Master (10/1), Misty's Gift (16/1), For Fear Of Frost (18/1), Knockraha Lass (22/1), Pray Tell (25/1), Knockbrack Rambler (33/1), The Bridge House (50/1), Dream Jet (100/1), Mon Loulou (125/1), Ballysheedy (125/1), Robin Flower (150/1), Soldier's Three (150/1), Lickthestamp (200/1), Western Warrior (200/1), Sunset Cato (200/1), Toppy's Boy (250/1)

LISNAGAR FORTUNE surely has more to offer for Willie Mullins and could be the way to go, although Present Soldier, Gold Bullion and For Fear of Frost have appealing claims also.
