Forecasts

Nelda (15/8), Livio Milo (5/2), Pier Pressure (10/3), Alexander John (13/2), Caulaincourt (14/1), Brave Thought (28/1), Kaydees Magic (28/1), Sectarius (33/1), Beauparc (40/1), Ruby Jules (66/1), Mayo Dawn (100/1), Saoirses Lulaby (150/1)

PIER PRESSURE shaped well on his Naas reappearance 5 weeks ago and can build on that promise and get off the mark at the third attempt. Nelda wasn't beaten that far in a Group 3 last time and is second choice ahead of Dermot Weld's Livio Milo.
