Forecasts

Little Bruce (5/2), Straidnahanna (11/4), Special Prep (5/1), Solstice Star (11/2), Lovely Job (6/1), Ballycrystal (6/1)

The race of the day on paper and LITTLE BRUCE could take advantage of the drop back to this trip, after running well here last time. Ballycrystal would be interesting if supported, while Special Prep is entitled to plenty of respect after a sizeable improvement last time. Straidnahanna adds to the contest with his excellent track record, while Lovely Job can also give a good account off top weight, now freshened up.
