Forecasts

Someday Somewhere (85/40), Cashel Queen (4/1), Nando Royale (6/1), Prince Of Peppard (7/1), Luca Brillante (8/1), Captain James Cook (8/1), Eighteenth Smiles (17/2), Honey Deuce (18/1), Pints Of Glory (25/1), Hypiradon (40/1), Green Sparkle (66/1), Matavai Bay (125/1)

EIGHTEENTH SMILES didn't get the breaks when third on his nursery debut at Galway last month and remains with potential. He could be the answer here. Luca Brillante and Cashel Queen head the list of dangers.
