Forecasts

Will The Wise (1/1), Waterford Whispers (11/4), Pure Steel (9/2), Prends Garde A Toi (6/1), Come Walk With Me (9/1), Koori Star (14/1), Hermino AA (20/1), Promontory (22/1), Me Wee Bonnie Lass (25/1), Alpesh Amin (33/1), Nolans Rocco (200/1)

This looks to rest between WILL THE WISE and Waterford Whispers with preference for Gavin Cromwell's improving 6-y-o who can take another step forward on the back of a promising Galway second and open his account in this sphere. Henry de Bromhead's useful sort also has better days ahead of him and rates a big threat though. Koori Star, Pure Steel and Prends Garde A Toi can fight it out for minor honours.
