Forecasts

Folly Master (16/5), Made In The Woods (7/2), Cosmo Renfro (5/1), Arthor (11/2), Captain Jimmy (6/1), Majestic Design (10/1), Reserve Judgement (10/1), Greenhill Damsel (11/1), Kilmacurkin (12/1), Wanchu Bach (14/1), Glorious Singer (28/1), Not May (33/1), Without Exception (66/1), Treyarnon Bay (80/1)

Not so competitive as the numbers suggest and COSMO RENFRO looks the way to go with the form of his recent big-field Limerick third having been franked. Course-winner Captain Jimmy is weighted to have a say and next on the list ahead of Glorious Singer and Arthor.
