Forecasts

Torygraph (2/1), Fire Attack (11/4), Julies Stowaway (4/1), Rocconrockall (7/1), Pistolet Rouge (7/1), The Brimming Water (8/1), On Eagles Wings (10/1), Elusive Star (10/1), Kilgorey (12/1), Splendid Decision (20/1), Born In Galway (22/1), Double Jubilee (50/1)

The Gordon Elliott-trained TORYGRAPH can improve on a pleasing debut at Punchestown last month to land the spoils in the closing race of the day. The four-year-old represents a yard with a 40% win and place strike rate at this meeting in bumpers since 2011. The Mags Mullins-trained Julies Stowaway can emerge as the biggest danger looking to build on a promising effort at Navan earlier this month while €72,000 Fire Attack and recent point-to-point winner, Elusive Star can battle for the remaining places.
