Forecasts

Humble Glory (4/6), The West Awaits (5/2), Merry Doyenne (17/2), Emily Roebling (9/1), Chenery (16/1), Fantasia Roque (25/1), Susie Miller (40/1), Stockdale (50/1), Pugin Hall (50/1), Wild Atlantic Lady (80/1), Pennywell Girl (100/1), Artizarra (150/1), Sound Of Glory (150/1), Could Be Trouble (200/1), Firth Of Tara (250/1), Mrs Watson (250/1), Queen Jenny (250/1), Roped In (300/1), Roccocal (300/1)

HUMBLE GLORY pushed the useful Lady Breffni quite hard over 2½m here in January, and looks to have every chance of going one better over this slightly longer trip with further improvement on the cards. The West Awaits landed a Clonmel bumper a year ago and rates the main threat ahead of Chenery.
