Forecasts

Finsceal Annie (7/2), Alex Belardo (4/1), Pandion Power (5/1), Sweet Verona (5/1), Private Officer (7/1), Buckhead Betty (8/1), Dolce Far Niente (9/1), Guest Star (10/1), Sayfa Fad (10/1), Ragtime Milly (10/1), Are You In Or Out (12/1), Marvellous Lady (16/1), Warazam (20/1), Celtic Druid (33/1), Royal Dynamite (50/1), Saxon Kingdom (50/1), Seven Eleven (80/1)

The Billy Lee-ridden SWEET VERONA gets the nod to build on a promising handicap debut third at Clonmel last month and prove too strong for Monday's Down Royal scorer Alex Belardo. Ragtime Milly shaped quite well when fourth at Gowran recently and completes the shortlist.
