Forecasts

General Clermont (11/4), Kalnoo (11/2), Burru (13/2), The Vegas Raider (8/1), Aussie Warrior (17/2), Stumblin In (10/1), Swelltime (12/1), Craic Eile (12/1), Vale Of Glory (14/1), Mastermind (16/1), Duncarrig (16/1), Getabelle (20/1), Crowsatedappletart (20/1), Annie Questions (22/1), She's On Line (40/1), The Grey Falco (66/1)

THE VEGAS RAIDER opened his account in determined fashion at Ballinrobe 12 days ago and is the percentage call to follow up back up in trip. General Clermont is still not one to trust fully but is doing nothing wrong at present and is potentially well treated back over hurdles on his recent chase form, while Duncarrig and Aussie Warrior are others with claims.
