Forecasts

Hees Dynamite (4/1), Oogum Boogum (11/2), Divilabother (11/2), A Nod To Getaway (7/1), Mabel In May (10/1), Harveyshonor (10/1), Heart Of Rome (11/1), Portarlington (12/1), Deise Bhoy (12/1), Moulane West (12/1), Will It Be You (14/1), Askwell (14/1), Garcon Doux (16/1), Maggie Walsh (16/1), It's Time Again (33/1), Klassman (33/1), Haveuseentherain (50/1), The Miracle Man (50/1), Quarry Lady (66/1), Red Night Sky (80/1), Trenchtown Rock (80/1)

Several to consider in this open-looking handicap. DIVILABOTHER has yet to get his head in front but it's still early days for this 6-y-o and he tops the list in first-time cheekpieces on the back of a solid third in a big-field Galway handicap last month. A Nod To Getaway, Hees Dynamite and Maggie Walsh all arrive here on the back of good efforts in defeat, too, and they are feared most in order of preference.
