Forecasts

Greenfinch (5/2), Tourist (5/2), Red Hugh O'Donnell (9/2), Cameo Performance (13/2), Flying Bay (12/1), Monasterboice (12/1), Ojw Legacy (16/1), Cathal (16/1), Hallowed (20/1), Slurricane (22/1), Blue Soul (25/1), Celestial Reign (33/1), Selton Hill (33/1), Glor Tire (50/1), Neo Smart (50/1), Bacio (200/1), Flippity Flop (200/1)

TOURIST brings some quite useful form to the table and is given one more chance now stepping up in trip for his AW debut. There should be more to come from Greenfinch for the Aidan O'Brien team so she's second choice. Her stablemate Hallowed is one of a few interesting newcomers who need monitoring closely in the betting.
