Forecasts
Jacenry (7/2), Gamigin (5/1), Stockdale (11/2), O'Faolains Glory (6/1), Perfect Pupil (9/1), Portnacoo (12/1), Glenabo Bridge (14/1), Scott Lang (16/1), Tipp For Mac (16/1), Noble Annys (20/1), Barryroe Madam (25/1), Joe's Turn (25/1), Malton Groove (28/1), Spatman De Cerisy (33/1), Kalsman (150/1)
There's likely more to come from last month's course scorer JACENRY so a 7 lb rise may not prevent him following up. Noel Kelly's Gamagin is another who has tasted success here this winter and is second choice ahead of Stockdale and Spatman de Cerisy, a potential improver in handicaps for Paul Nolan.
