Forecasts

Bout Time Bobby (3/1), Branson Missouri (3/1), Gateau De Miel (16/5), Moakland (7/2), Hymie Weiss (11/2), I'll Ask The Uncle (100/1), Tadhg R Liam (150/1)

HYMIE WEISS was perhaps a shade fortunate to be awarded the race at Kilbeggan when last seen in April but this isn't a deep race so the follow up is on the cards. Gateau de Miel and Branson Missouri head the opposition.
