Forecasts

Georg Zhukov (7/2), My Vonnie (7/2), Hale Bopp (4/1), Endless Dawn (9/2), Haeret In Pectore (15/2), Methgal (10/1), Storm Eric (14/1), Si Senior (14/1), Smaoineamh Sile (14/1), Lady Luck (22/1), Hell Left Loose (22/1), Rock Etoile (25/1), Bella Colombia (50/1), Jazz Dreamers (50/1), Brosna Green (50/1)

The vote goes to GEORG ZHUKOV, who found just one too good over this C&D on his final start for Noel Meade and a reproduction of that would make him hard to beat. Hale Bopp and My Vonnie both look dangerous, while Endless Dawn could also have a part to play.
