Forecasts

Demanding Gerry (3/1), Mr Dibbs (4/1), Dee's Getaway (13/2), Newport (15/2), Influential Lady (8/1), Massabielle (8/1), Rhythmic Tune (8/1), Jaadil (9/1), Thats All (11/1), Blossom De Mai (11/1), Leitzel (14/1), Who's In Midfield (18/1), Pepperpots (20/1), I'm Flattered (22/1), Slea Head (25/1), Masterstonemason (66/1)

Lots with chances but this could go the way of JAADIL who is less exposed than most and comes here on the back of very good second in a big-field Bellewstown handicap last time. In-form maiden Thats All heads the list of dangers with Demanding Gerry, Newport and Who's In Midfield all in the mix too.
