Forecasts

Pascalia (15/8), Barretstown (9/2), Dromore Glory (6/1), Doctor Grace (8/1), Akmaam (8/1), Albatala (8/1), Lilac Lady (14/1), Explorers Way (14/1), The Dazzer (16/1), Benzine (20/1), Lord Of Excess (22/1), Lady Delila (28/1), Cu Chulainn (28/1), Easky Maid (100/1)

PASCALIA is still on the up judged on her latest second here last month and can go one better if seeing out the longer trip. Dromore Glory is feared most ahead of Explorers Way.
