Forecasts

Snapraeterea (11/4), Ecliptical (9/2), My Minervina (5/1), Belle Image (5/1), Vafortino (6/1), Dense Star (6/1), Kauri Cliffs (16/1), Amber Kite (18/1), Prairie Dancer (20/1), Supershock (33/1), Eastern Voice (33/1), No Stopping Her (40/1), The Blue Panther (50/1), Huddle Up (50/1), Amazed By Grace (66/1), Star Image (100/1), Revolutme (100/1)

SNAPRAETEREA has held his own in pattern company of late and has solid form claims here for the Joseph O'Brien team. Belle Image looked useful when winning comfortably at the Curragh last month and rates a possible threat with improvement on the cards. The selection's stablemate Vafortino could play a part despite top weight, while Ecliptical won cosily and should have more to come for Ger Lyons.
