Forecasts

Snake Oil (8/13), So Original (6/1), Glenglass (13/2), Arlo (13/2), Western Walk (14/1), So Scottish (16/1), Ottoman Style (18/1), Lillys Girl (25/1), Deputy Thomas (40/1), Leading Oak (50/1), Booster (50/1), Brock Beauty (66/1), Annie Stafford (80/1), Whispering Chance (100/1), Atlantian (150/1), Longhouse Force (200/1), Flemenora (250/1), Thebabyman (300/1)

SNAKE OIL should be all the sharper for his recent Naas second after an absence and this fairly useful sort can open his account in this sphere. Arlo appeals as the one to chase home Barry Connell's 7-y-o with So Original not ruled out either, especially if the market vibes are positive for Henry de Bromhead's newcomer.
