Forecasts

Constantinople (4/11), Gathering Storm (4/1), Desert Island (7/1), Counting Sheep (9/1), Wexford Land (33/1), Grove Gold (33/1), Doi Suthep (66/1), La Capacite (66/1), Colonel Lesley (100/1), The Blame Man (100/1)

Doi Suthep will possibly take the field along in the early stages here from stall two. The Aidan O'Brien-trained CONSTANTINOPLE shouldn't really have any excuses to get off the mark at the third time of asking here with Donnacha O'Brien in the plate. Stablemates Gathering Storm and Desert Island can battle Counting Sheep for the minors here.
