Forecasts

Mary Salome (10/3), Navorrosse (13/2), Sondheim (8/1), Miss Florentine (10/1), Tai Sing Yeh (11/1), Silverback Jack (11/1), Miss Cunning (14/1), Cracking Name (14/1), St George's Head (16/1), Treble Cone (16/1), Sassy Dancer (16/1), Carryonregardless (16/1), Upstate New York (18/1), Silk Cravat (22/1), What A Feeling (33/1), Pulsating (33/1), Dynakite (40/1), Kilonova (50/1), Tidal Racer (66/1), Rugaday (100/1)

A wide-open closing contest which can go the way of TAI SING YEH, who wasn't at his best at Fairyhouse 12 days ago but can get on the scoresheet for the first time in nearly 2 years back up in trip here. Cracking Name heads the dangers with a couple of recent respectable efforts under her belt, ahead of Navorrosse and Pulsating.
