Forecasts

Just For Love (10/11), Farfromnowhere (9/4), Cast A Spell (9/4), Disco Dancer (3/1), Godblessyourosie (8/1), Kimjoy (8/1), Nells Choice (10/1), Mustameet Secret (14/1), Cappacurry Ealu (14/1), Opera Point (50/1), Into The Unknown (50/1), Zigzagado (50/1), Mountrivers Lass (50/1), Pasquetta (66/1), Gabbys Doll House (80/1), Larkins Lane (100/1), Takemeuptocarlow (200/1)

JUST FOR LOVE had a bit to spare when landing short odds on her Galway bumper debut last autumn and can follow up switched to hurdles on her return. Gordon Elliott's Disco Dancer shaped well when fourth on her Tipperary hurdle debut earlier in the month and is second choice ahead of point/bumper winner Farfromnowhere.
