Forecasts

Dreams Fled Away (5/2), Oranmore (10/3), Hidden Land (11/2), Ciao Adios (6/1), Mosaaheb (17/2), Honketonk Angel (12/1), Circus Act (14/1), Big Kitten (16/1), Dark Voyager (16/1), Landue (28/1), Vodka Warlord (50/1), Kalsman (100/1), Hague Convention (150/1)

DREAMS FLED AWAY finished to good effect when third at this course 12 days ago and the longer trip should suit, so he boasts strong claims provided the blinkers work again. Most of his rivals have something to prove but a case can be made for both Oranmore and Mosaaheb.
