Forecasts

Dr Eggman (4/9), Intense Approach (3/1), Arabian Diamond (5/1), Master Player (13/2), Rocco Boyo (16/1), Fast Felix (16/1), Orpington (25/1), Magic Olinger (33/1), Ballysheedy (33/1), Iamasko (33/1), Midleton Rare (40/1), Dixies Girl (66/1), Mother's Gift (100/1), Phantomofthepoints (125/1), Penalty Try (125/1), One Cool Cherry (125/1), Henry's Sister (125/1), Super Surprise (150/1), Mr Fandango (150/1)

DR EGGMAN has been placed in good bumpers at Fairyhouse and Punchestown this spring and will likely be hard to beat unless the betting speaks strongly in the favour of expensive point recruit Intense Approach. Gordon Elliott's Arabian Diamond is best of the remainder.
