Forecasts

Devil's Angel (7/2), I'm Spartacus (7/2), Blanc De Noir (5/1), Hezahunk (15/2), Senado Square (10/1), Elliott (11/1), Jazzy Dancer (12/1), Finito Bonito (12/1), Rattletheonionbag (14/1), Wild Mountain (20/1), Eriskay (20/1), Carrigans Grove (20/1), Livingston Range (33/1), Dear Daphne (33/1), Tropical Shot (66/1)

Lots with chances but JAZZY DANCER is fancied to build on his recent Fairyhouse 12th after a lay-off and capitalise on a handy-looking mark. Fellow C&D scorer Hezahunk heads the list of dangers, with Fairyhouse-winner Blanc de Noir and I'm Spartacus also firmly in the picture. Senado Square completes the shortlist.
