Forecasts

Rosato (6/1), Verhoyen (13/2), Rising Sky (13/2), Port Louis (17/2), Secret Magician (9/1), Proleek Prince (9/1), Are You In Or Out (9/1), Martinelli (10/1), Ferrybank (11/1), Touted Plan (12/1), Great Mover (12/1), Goldsmith (12/1), Expert Analysis (12/1), Clever And Classy (14/1), Dynamic Force (16/1), Cecco (22/1), Spent All Me Money (25/1), Bearwithus (50/1)

FERRYBANK has been consistently solid and could be the way to go with new headgear. Secret Magician won this race last year and remains capable despite a below-par effort last time, while Verhoyen showed good form when second at Fairyhouse recently.
