Forecasts

Burning Ambition (4/6), Knockraha Boss (3/1), Chapter Two (7/1), Follow The Moon (16/1), Longhouse Music (16/1), Crookesmoor (20/1), He Knows My Name (25/1), Sliabh Mhuire Lass (25/1), Just Wait And See (25/1), Oscar Nomination (25/1), Senators Glory (33/1), Alice's Star (33/1), Sommerton (50/1)

This should be pretty straightforward for the top point-to-point youngster BURNING AMBITION who has won his last four starts. Dual point-to-point winner Knockraha Boss finished second of nine in a Cork hunter chase last month and that performance put's him right in the mix here while Longhouse Music and Oscar Nomination could out-run their long odds to possibly hit the frame.
