Forecasts

Zipster (4/1), The Real Screamer (5/1), Moyassr (11/2), Flying Bay (6/1), Alpha Capture (13/2), Tachos (7/1), Unterberg (8/1), Bill Silvers (9/1), Pillar Of Hope (11/1), Tribal Moon (12/1), Loingseoir (16/1), Whist (16/1), Stormie Outlook (20/1), Rampage (28/1), Speckled Meadow (33/1), Kaptain Bay (33/1), Space Warrior (33/1), Zephron (66/1), Captain Hanley (80/1)

Plenty are in with a shout but ZIPSTER gets the vote racing off a 2 lb lower mark than when a good Roscommon third a fortnight ago. The Real Screamer is next on the list on the back of his easy Tipperary victory, while Alpha Capture, Loingseoir, Unterberg and Pillar of Hope can also have a say too in this open handicap.
