Forecasts

Power Of Prayer (4/1), Numidia (9/2), Someone's Wish (5/1), Nibras Rainbow (6/1), Nita (8/1), Gallo Dell Cielo (10/1), My Vonnie (10/1), Mischief Man (10/1), Grey Fable (12/1), Miss Australie (12/1), Boyne Valley (14/1), Doctor Grace (20/1), Highland Harvey (20/1), Yup Bro (20/1), Don't Look Now (33/1), Deluca Chop (33/1), Lady Christa (33/1)

Joseph O'Brien's POWER OF PRAYER is very much on the up since sent handicapping and can make light of a 4 lb weights rise for her recent C&D success. Nibras Rainbow also arrives on the back of a course victory and is next on the list ahead of the handily-weighted Don't Look Now and in-form duo Miss Australie and Someone's Wish.
