Forecasts

Angel Of Antrim (5/6), Finn Ironside (9/2), Streak Lightning (15/2), Impeach (14/1), Conquest Of Power (14/1), Jump The Gun (14/1), Bobby Joe Leg (22/1), Ravensbourne (25/1), Pallas Lord (28/1), Mickey Mongoose (80/1), Kalganov (125/1)

ANGEL OF ANTRIM has dominated a couple of similar races recently and should prove hard to beat again. Impeach, Streak Lightning and Finn Ironside can fight it out for minor honours.
