Forecasts

Rising Dust (11/8), Duke Silver (13/2), Ira Hayes (17/2), Sign From Above (17/2), Burru (9/1), Moonovercloon (11/1), Outside The Door (14/1), Ceanndana (16/1), Down Around (16/1), Invictus World (20/1), Mars Harper (22/1), Jolie Jewel (25/1), Toor Khov (28/1), Its Not Over Yet (33/1), Digby (33/1), Walking On Glass (33/1), Quest With Speed (40/1), Charlie Luciano (80/1)

This step back up in trip looks a good move where MOONOVERCLOON is concerned and the 8-y-o is taken to snap his losing run having slipped to a very attractive mark. If Rising Dust backs up his recent ready Listowel success he will be a big threat, while Down Around and Burru are appealing each-way candidates.
