Forecasts

Beauparc (4/1), It'sonlyjustbegun (7/1), Arch Enemy (8/1), Pier Pressure (17/2), Alabama Calling (10/1), Sli Na Ghealai (11/1), Walhaan (12/1), Chavajod (12/1), Victor's Choice (12/1), Hurricane Helen (14/1), Complete Fiction (14/1), Pearl Of Australia (16/1), Enough Already (20/1), Latin (20/1), Reclaim (22/1)

Verdict

IT'SONLYJUSTBEGUN was impressive at Navan on her penultimate outing and wasn't seen to best effect at the Curragh last time, so she's worth a chance to get back to winning ways. Beauparc and Victor's Choice are in good order and also worthy of interest.
