Forecasts

Flicker Of Hope (11/4), Lovely Reaction (11/4), Solo Flight (10/3), No Fussing (6/1), True Or False (17/2), Joya Del Mar (9/1), Ivane (9/1), Ar Aghaidh (12/1), Elle Dorado Rock (12/1), The Dabbler (14/1), Lispopple (18/1), Dun Ar Aill (20/1), Unklipped (28/1), Look Dont Touch (33/1), Imminent Arrival (33/1), Coastal World (100/1)

FLICKER OF HOPE had plenty to spare at Wexford and can defy the handicapper again and complete a hat-trick. The return to a longer trip will suit Lovely Reaction and she can give Mark Fahey's charge most to think about. True Or False and Joya del Mar also make the shortlist.
