Forecasts

Yamal (6/5), The Marty Party (9/4), King Thistle (4/1), Dr Ali (5/1), Shocker (11/2), Sunriseontheboyne (7/1), Zaraahmando (12/1)

YAMAL's opening mark could be judged as lenient given how his debut performance worked out and having been gelded, he's fancied to get back on track. The Marty Party is expected to show more this time, the Sunriseontheboyne another to note up in trip.
