Forecasts

Forest Of Dreams (10/3), Alarm Call (6/1), Rosie Bassett (7/1), Colfer Kay (7/1), Logo Hunter (15/2), Claonadh (8/1), Twilight Man (10/1), Mooneista (14/1), Linda Barrett (18/1), Grammata (18/1), Sloane Peterson (25/1), The Blue Panther (25/1), Tar Heel (28/1), Bell I Am (40/1), Fine Distraction (50/1)

FOREST OF DREAMS' maiden win at Navan has worked out well and she remains with potential on handicap debut having found a Group 2 at the Curragh too tough. Rosie Bassett and Claonadh both looked potentially useful when winning their maidens at the Curragh in the autumn and they head the dangers.
