Forecasts
Rakan (8/11), Barbados (7/4), Eminent Authority (6/1)
A small field, but all three are open to improvement on the useful form they've shown to date, and RAKAN is still engaged in the Irish Derby, which suggests his shrewd connections expect him to build on a promising fourth to Broome in the Derrinstown Derby Trial here last month. Barbados and Eminent Authority both won maidens over shorter last time, and shlould improve enough to ensure the selection has to work for victory.
