Forecasts

Nice To Meet (11/10), Woodbrook Boy (7/2), Russian Diamond (5/1), Lanziano (10/1), Rust To Riches (14/1), Chateau Elan (14/1), All Hell Let Loose (16/1), Getawayrooney (25/1), Daicheadacuig (80/1)

RUSSIAN DIAMOND exceeded market expectations when fourth in a better hunter than this at Downpatrick 17 days ago so he looks the way to go. Nice To Meet is feared most, though it will be interesting to see Lanziano can do over the regulation fences.
