Forecasts

Aherlow (11/8), Stoneford (7/4), Aasleagh Dawn (10/3), Generator City (4/1), Ozzie's Way (7/1), Askann (10/1), Kos (16/1), Madaboy Cross (20/1)

Trainer Noel Meade may have found an ideal opening for his seven-race maiden, STONEFORD to finally get off the mark over fences at the eighth attempt. The Beneficial gelding can land the spoils at the expense of the Henry De Bromhead-trained, Aherlow and potentially improving sort, Aasleagh Dawn. The Denis Hogan pair Generator City and Ozzie's Way could be worth a market check as post time approaches.
