Forecasts

Electric Dreamer (9/2), Le Grand Vert (7/1), Agirlcalledchloe (15/2), Gold Haven (8/1), Tullyhogue Fort (9/1), Tippin And Tappin (9/1), Ballydangan (10/1), Tuff Days (11/1), Inchidaly Copper (12/1), Smitty Bacall (12/1), Kadys Dirha (14/1), Thehairyfella (14/1), Ocean Legacy (16/1), Father Jed (18/1), Winter Carnival (25/1), Larkfield Legacy (25/1), Rose Of Kalanisi (28/1), Fr Gilligansvoyge (28/1), Three Loud Knocks (33/1)

ELECTRIC DREAMER is still relatively unexposed and was clear of the rest when runner-up at Killarney last month. She makes plenty of appeal. Agirlcalledchloe and Gold Haven can also make their prsence felt.
