Forecasts

Amadeus Mozart (10/11), Flanker Jet (4/1), Green Soul (4/1), Dorset (5/1), Maximum Scepticism (9/1), Lake Como (10/1), Ipanema Beach (16/1), Nod Of Approval (25/1), Gold Youmzain (50/1), The Holy Apostle (250/1), Mr Kobe (250/1)

GREEN SOUL made a good start to his career when runner-up at Roscommon last month and is taken to go one better here. Aidan O'Brien's newcomers are always to be feared and his Amadeus Mozart and Dorset may provide the chief threat.
