Forecasts

Lisbane Park (5/2), Spectacularsunrise (11/4), Rockonliam (9/2), De Temps En Temps (7/1), As Legends Have It (9/1), Ballykinlar (12/1), Palamon (12/1), Sogna In Grande (14/1), Kahavari (16/1), O'Moore Park (25/1), Sony Bill (33/1)

Henry de Bromhead took this 12 months ago and looks to have another likely sort in ROCKONLIAM who really impressed when scoring at Wexford last time and can extend his winning sequence to four here. Spectacularsunrise went in at the first time of asking over fences at Perth last month and could emerge as the main danger with better to come, although Palamon arrives at the top of his game and isn't dismissed lightly. Chasing newcomers Lisbane Park and De Temps En Temps need considering too.
