Forecasts

Keke (13/8), Rappell (4/1), Cuban Grey (11/2), Havana Notion (9/1), Eruption (12/1), My Girl Sioux (12/1), Un Bacio Ancora (12/1), Step Back In Time (16/1), Marble Angel (18/1), Realtin Fantasy (20/1), Sosallycanwait (22/1), Silver Nemo (28/1), Coco Hill (40/1), Sunday Sovereign (50/1), Ginormous (80/1), Florence Thompson (80/1), Just Another (125/1)

KEKE finished to really good effect having been stopped in his run more than once when third at Naas 4 weeks ago and makes plenty of appeal. The improving Rappell is a big player, with Tipperary-winner Cuban Grey also highly respected.
