Forecasts

Antrim Coast (11/10), What's Up Darling (9/4), Timmy Tuesday (7/2), Butcher Hollow (6/1), Millforce (10/1), Larkfield Lidaho (250/1)

This will probably be between WHAT'S UP DARLING and Antrim Coast, for all that the former's stablemate Timmy Tuesday certainly won't be without a chance if taking to fences at the first attempt. Antrim Coast put up a bold show in a valuable Galway handicap last time and is not passed over at all lightly, but What's Up Darling has shown enough to suggest that a race of this nature should be within his grasp.
