Forecasts

Sir Carno (11/4), Shar Whats Therush (3/1), Rock On Barney (4/1), Mlily (6/1), Danse Away (7/1), Two In One (10/1), Flemish Maid (20/1), Fluspar (25/1), Not Touch (33/1)

Shar Whats Therush showed huge improvement in a first-time tongue-tie to win a seemingly stronger handicap at Fairyhouse last time out and will take some stopping if in the same mood despite a 9lb hike. Milly and Rock On Barney have also shown enough to merit consideration but there remains a suspicion that we've yet to see the best of the hitherto underwhelming SIR CARNO and this drop in grade may be enough to see him open his account.
