Forecasts

San Aer (7/2), Facethepuckout (7/2), Rampage (4/1), Imposing Supreme (4/1), Out On Friday (6/1), Rockbury Lad (15/2), One Cool Poet (10/1), Fastman (11/1), Chavajod (14/1), Pierre Lapin (16/1), Teddy O'neill (18/1), Sea Spray (20/1), Broad Daylight (25/1), Grann's Boy (50/1), Nibras Rainbow (50/1)

ROCKBURY LAD needs to shrug off a lesser effort in blinkers at Killarney but he'd previously been shaping up well and, with cheekpieces refitted, it would come as no surprise to see a better showing. The selection's stablemate Facethepuckout and Rampage are a couple of likely threats, with Pierre Lapin another worth keeping an eye on.
