Forecasts

Soy El Fuego (15/8), Plushy (9/4), The Right One (11/4), Land Of Spirit (12/1), The Love Machine (14/1), A La Dure (14/1), Methodtomy Madness (20/1), Whistling Jamesie (28/1), Cotai Island (66/1), Lady Landhort (100/1), Queen Of Newark (150/1), Spiced Gold (200/1), Carnival Spirit (400/1)

PLUSHY has made a bright start and can uphold Cork form with The Right One and come out on top. Soy El Fuego shaped with encouragement first time up at the Curragh and can do better.
