Forecasts

Beautiful Dawn (6/5), Beyond Your Dreams (4/1), Timana (11/2), Dancing Leaves (8/1), Mm Dragonfly (10/1), Copie Conforme (12/1), Sylkie (16/1), Butterfly Bush (25/1), Still She Blooms (28/1), Alabama Calling (33/1), Holly Woods Dancer (40/1), Waystar (50/1), Japanese Silk (66/1), Flippity Flop (80/1), Small Bucks (150/1), Get Your Groove On (250/1)

Joseph O'Brien could hold the key to this and BEAUTIFUL DAWN is chanced to build on a promising debut here 6 weeks ago and open her account, with the longer trip likely to suit. Beyond Your Dreams and Dancing Leaves are interesting newcomers for the yard, as is the Aga Khan's Timana for Johnny Murtagh.
