Forecasts

How About No (2/1), Squire Danagher (3/1), Palace Rock (10/3), Unterberg (8/1), Celtic Revival (12/1), Banana Three (14/1), Fascinating Shadow (16/1), Eskimo Komet (28/1), Bold Approach (33/1), Dreal Deal (50/1), Wajaaha (66/1)

Joseph O'Brien's unexposed C&D winner HOW ABOUT NO has more to come now he steps into handicap company so edges the vote in this competitive handicap. Celtic Renvival is feared most given his superb record round here, although a good case can also be made for Unterberg, Squire Danagher and Banana Three.
