Forecasts

Not Now Darling (2/1), Windbeneathmywings (5/2), Heads Up (5/2), Addragoole (4/1), Black Heather (9/2), Mellem (9/1), Couldntmakeitup (16/1), Ad Caelum (22/1)

Having made a winning start, WINDBENEATHMYWINGS probably bumped into one when second at Ballinrobe last time and, if he's in the same form, he can get back to winning ways here. Not Now Darling and Addragoole are also serious players.
