Forecasts

Expound (1/1), Allo Arry (3/1), Secret Spy (13/2), Baalbec Beauty (8/1), I Know I Can (16/1), Ta Na La (18/1), Knight Sleeper (22/1), Maid Of Eirinn (66/1), Carrickfinn (100/1), My Joker (100/1)

EXPOUND's limitations are pretty well established but he probably won't get a better chance to win a maiden if handling the track. Baalbec Beauty and Ta Na La head the opposition.
