Forecasts

Goodnightngodbless (3/1), Outside The Door (10/3), Gateau De Miel (4/1), Battle Of Mirbat (9/2), Whacker Clan (6/1), Silvertown (6/1), Lake Chad (13/2), Aldo The Apache (17/2), Avec Espoir (14/1), Follow The Crowd (14/1)

GATEAU DE MIEL got back on the up with his comeback run under his belt when second at Killarney last time and should go well here. Outside The Door arrives on the back of a career-best win at Punchestown, while the in-form Goodnightngodbless is another to consider.
