Forecasts

Wolf Prince (5/4), Autumn Evening (4/1), Sunniyra (6/1), Sea Appeal (17/2), Act Of God (14/1), La Hacienda (14/1), Franno (16/1), Father Ailbe (20/1), Ballinlough Gale (25/1), Away To Sea (28/1), Future Proof (40/1), Djasek (50/1), Rock Chica (80/1), Three Comets (150/1)

SEA APPEAL has progressed since switched to handicaps and while a 9 lb rise for last month's Listowel success, this 3-y-o probably has more to offer. He is taken to complete the hat-trick. La Hacienda's latest third in a big-field Galway handicap was a solid effort and she should have a part to play, while recent hurdles winners Autumn Evening and Wolf Prince also make some appeal.
