Forecasts

Pookie Holler (85/40), Daydream Nation (11/2), Midnight Our Fred (11/2), He's Home Again (7/1), Kingkong Ciergues (8/1), Lonesome Boatman (11/1), Plain Or Battered (12/1), Flemensface (14/1), The Shanty Field (16/1), Pebble Bleu (18/1)

Verdict

Henry de Bromhead's POOKIE HOLLER rates the clear pick of the weights on the back of an excellent Thurles second and is fancied to go one better at the chief expense of handicap debutant Daydream Nation. Kingkong Ciergues, The Shanty Field and He's Home Again can also have a say, too.
