Forecasts

Dandyville (15/8), Queen Maedbh (9/2), Hispanic (15/2), Dontspoilasale (8/1), Livingston Range (8/1), Harry's Bar (17/2), Mehman (9/1), Tai Sing Yeh (16/1), Cash Or Crypto (18/1), Mickey The Steel (33/1), Apricot Twist (40/1), Coolcalmncollected (40/1), Wild Mountain (125/1)

TAI SING YEH comes here on the back of a career-best Naas success so this multiple C&D winner gets the verdict in a competitive handicap. Fellow C&D scorer Dandyville is feared most, although Mickey The Steel is weighted to have a big say too if on his A-game.
