Forecasts

Balmari (11/10), Dune Of Pilat (6/5), Summit Rock (15/2), Mecklenburg (12/1), Lazy Susan (16/1), Dandy Spirit (20/1), Is That Love (33/1), Power And Pace (50/1), Caught In The Wild (66/1), Fryerns (66/1), Kerry Blue (66/1), Navorrosse (66/1), Accessory (66/1), Delta Sansevero (100/1), Zeeshan (100/1), Blue Gale Five (100/1)

Costing €340,000, DUNE OF PILAT can build on a promising debut when second of 13 beaten ½L behind Aerclub at this venue last month over 1m. The Joseph O'Brien-trained youngster can land the spoils ahead of the Mukhadram colt, Balmari who was beaten favourite over C&D earlier this month when running the impressive Prince Of Naples to ½L. The Dermot Weld-trained Summit Rock is likely to improve once again from his first couple of career starts may have to settle for a minor honour in this contest.
