Forecasts

Walhaan (4/1), By Your Side (4/1), The Dasher Conway (5/1), Presenting Lad (7/1), Baltinglass Hill (8/1), Major Barry (9/1), Influential Lady (10/1), Old Bill Barley (11/1), Rockstown Girl (12/1), Striking (14/1), Drumgill (22/1), Little Mixup (40/1)

BALTINGLASS HILL has been in top form lately and, after finding one too good at Wexford a month ago, he's worth a chance to resume winning ways at the possible expense of Presenting Lad, who returns to this sphere after a ready success over the larger obstacles. By Your Side is also respected.
