Forecasts

Night Moon (4/1), Contrapposto (5/1), Estepona Sun (6/1), Oakley (6/1), Ciao Adios (7/1), Fond Farewell (8/1), Slieve Bearnagh (8/1), Inchiquin Maid (10/1), Sleepless Knight (12/1), Baile Locha Riach (14/1), Charlie Darling (14/1), Maura's Gift (16/1), Lord Park (25/1), Stepdance (33/1), Vintage Gold (33/1)

Verdict

CONTRAPPOSTO is on a long losing run but signalled his turn is near when an excellent second at Sligo so can go one better off the same mark here provided he is none the worse for his exertions here over hurdles on Thursday. Slieve Bearnagh is another who is weighted to go close and he is next on the list ahead of Inchiquin Maid and Estepona Sun who both revert to this sphere.
