Forecasts

I Sea The Moon (4/1), Go Gill Go (4/1), Lucky Max (11/2), Kate Ill Know (7/1), Mullins Cross (15/2), Hot On My Heels (9/1), Master Cornwall (10/1), Makfils (10/1), Strong Roots (12/1), Will You Win (12/1), Truckers Angel (16/1), Shantou Sisu (16/1), Ballea Fox (25/1), Arctic Ambition (25/1), Rose Milan (40/1), Carry On Buddy (50/1), Lake Chad (80/1), Fox Watch (80/1)

A competitive handicap and the suggestion is KATE ILL KNOW, who got back on track with a good third at Galway earlier in the month and now returns to the scene of her sole success. Go Gill Go, Mullins Cross and Truckers Angel are a trio of others to consider.
