Forecasts

Londonofficecallin (11/4), Art Of Silence (5/1), Nostra Casa (7/1), Tender Camilla (8/1), Grappa Nonino (10/1), Zileo (14/1), Walking On Glass (14/1), Weather Alert (14/1), Fire Coral (14/1), Master Dunraven (14/1), Global Export (16/1), Rauzan (20/1), Tasayad (20/1), Wild Dollar (22/1), Bayou Belle (22/1), Summer Fly (28/1), Chilean (33/1), Bella Nebula (33/1), Tenth Amendment (40/1), Brehon Star (40/1), Mambo De La Luna (40/1), Kashi (50/1), Annecherie (80/1)

NOSTRA CASA shaped as if still in good form in a race not run to suit when fourth at Ballinrobe so this low-mileage 7-y-o remains of interest off a fair mark. The thriving Londonofficecallin is an obvious threat, while Art of Silence has potential in this sphere on hurdles form.
