Forecasts

Belle Metal (8/13), Boothen Boy (4/1), Silas Marner (13/2), Making Country (10/1), Powpowfizz (16/1), Rocket Carnival (20/1), Judicial Law (25/1), Fancy A Cosmo (25/1), My Intention (40/1), Larkins Luck (125/1)

It's hard to look beyond BELLE METAL, who looked one to follow when running out an impressive winner on her debut at Naas in January. Boothen Boy shaped encouragingly on his recent hurdling debut and can pose the main threat ahead of Silas Marner.
