Forecasts

Realism (11/10), Cast A Spell (5/4), Palo Duro (4/1), Nelson Muntz (13/2), Impero (7/1), Betty Dutton (22/1), Fleadhfest (80/1), Colourful Lil (200/1)

REALISM, who was third in a novice hurdle at Cork when last seen in May, is presented with a golden opportunity to open his account and it'll be disappointing should he fail to deliver. Palo Duro is preferred to Cast A Spell for forecast purposes.
