Forecasts

Mt Leinster (4/6), Flor De La Luna (7/4), Barbados (15/8), Light Brigade (5/1), Scheu Time (12/1), Lustrous Light (50/1), Drayton Cross (100/1), Orcadian Symphony (125/1), Crecerelle (150/1), Sin E An Sceal (150/1), Presenting Point (200/1), Bruinneall (250/1)

This may well rest between the Jessica Harrington-trained duo, BARBADOS and Flor De La Luna. Preference is for the former, who understandably struggled in the Irish St Leger last time and he went close at Killarney on his penultimate start. Mt Leinster is best of the rest by some way, but he looks vulnerable for win purposes under a penalty.
