Forecasts

Dinoland (10/3), Antrim Coast (7/2), Ladies Well (13/2), Intense Approach (9/1), Drop A Threat (9/1), Brucejack (11/1), Charlie Luciano (11/1), Shantou Show (12/1), King Gris (12/1), Ringdufferin (14/1), Mister Pink (16/1), Minella Sixo (20/1), Labondance (20/1), Attaboyarchie (22/1), Clonmeen (25/1)

DINOLAND and Ladies Well have both been thriving of late and look the pair to concentrate on, with marginal preference for the former given the return to chasing is very much in his favour. Charlie Luciano is likely to give it another good go, too.
