Forecasts

Swing Davis (6/5), Future Prospect (11/8), Blue Velvet (5/1), Galileo Springs (9/1), Mags Collins (12/1), Dee's Lady (16/1), The Reel Martello (25/1), Heather View (25/1), Boldplay (33/1), Lisnacurra Star (50/1), Annie Button (50/1), Amy's Quest (125/1), Summer Dawn (200/1)

John Magnier and Willie Mullins team up with winning pointer FUTURE PROSPECT, who scored readily in a point, and she may well be capable of making a successful Rules debut for all that Swing Davis arrives on the back of an excellent start in a listed event. Blue Velvet is another interesting recruit having unseated when sure to score between the flags.
