Forecasts

Dazzling Darren (7/4), Alatar (9/4), Marchons Ensemble (3/1), Yulong Pearlisland (10/3), Presgrave (6/1), Firstman (7/1), Grey Serge (9/1), Simply True (10/1)

The Ger Lyons-trained, MARCHONS ENSEMBLE can land the spoils in the finale'. The son of Derby winner Pour Moi looked in good form with himself when finishing second of 14 runners at Leopardstown on seasonal debut last month, beaten ½L behind Moll. Young jockey Sam Ewing, taking off 10lb, will be having his third career ride on the gelding following earlier spins on Avarice (2.30) and his first ever ride under rules on Dress Code (1.00). Alatar for trainer Mick Halford, the Joseph O'Brien-trained, Presgrave and Yulong Pearlisland for trainer Jessica Harrington can all give good accounts.
