Forecasts

Thedeviluno (10/11), Kildinan Prince (9/4), Strong Link (5/2), Kevlar (6/1), Kamikaz Du Plessis (13/2), Hawk's Rock (10/1), Big Ned (16/1), Passing Diamond (18/1), Kazbek (22/1), Anniewithan E (25/1), Woodie Campelltown (28/1), Larkfield Liberty (33/1), Lakewood Rose (40/1), Cappaho (50/1), Times A Wastin (66/1), Absolute Bliss (66/1), Portnablagh (100/1)

THEDEVILUNO filled second spot again at Cork behind a very promising one for Willie Mullins and he can go one better here. Kildinan Prince looked all stamina when running well over 25f over hurdles on his recent debut but has to be respected after that. Passing Diamond has been doing well in points and could figure.
