Forecasts

Royalcorrespondent (11/10), The Caribbean (10/3), Beauty Thunder (15/2), Innate (9/1), Parry (10/1), Vespertilio (14/1), Munasir (18/1), Barley Cove (22/1), Janzoor (28/1), Guest Star (50/1), Aisling Oscar (100/1), Poppadom (125/1), Rogerwaswrong (150/1), Funny Face (200/1)

This could go to a newcomer, with ROYALCORRESPONDENT interesting as Colin Keane's pick of the 3 for Ger Lyons before market clues. Munasir is interesting for Joseph O'Brien, and while the jury is out on The Caribbean for now he's clearly thought capable of better and it would be no surprise to see him take a step forward in first-time blinkers under an apprentice who has been catching the eye.
