Forecasts

Comeonarchie (3/1), Cramers Valley (4/1), Slotty Dotty (11/2), Jetaway To Getaway (7/1), Jonny Mansie (9/1), Fancy Prospect (11/1), Tilloughna (11/1), Alright Darling (16/1), Cosmo Renfro (18/1), Imperial Tune (18/1), Robyndeglory (18/1), Another Nightmare (28/1), Jokers 'N' Clowns (33/1)

Verdict

If the first-time cheekpieces have the desired effect ROBYNDEGLORY would have a serious chance, off the same mark as when a close third in a big-field handicap at Tipperary in November. She has failed to fire both starts since but perhaps the headgear will have make a difference. Comeonarchie put in a solid shift here last time and he is an obvious danger, while Tilloughna is also on the shortlist.
