Forecasts

Saffronandblue (11/4), Grey Fable (7/2), Red Ball Of Fire (15/2), Jeaniemacaroney (8/1), Dromore Glory (8/1), Daonethatgotaway (17/2), Not Just Any Eagle (9/1), Angel On Fire (10/1), Darkened (10/1), Patrick Street (12/1), Dinamine (18/1), Kartayaz (20/1), Astrophysicist (25/1), Anjah (28/1), You Make Me Smile (33/1), Ruby Jules (66/1), Lakewood (80/1)

RED BALL OF FIRE shaped well when last seen on the Flat a year ago and won over jumps in this headgear last summer so she might be worth chancing back from a break. Easy Leopardstown winner Saffronandblue is feared most ahead of Kartayaz and Angel On Fire.
