Forecasts

Dartan (6/4), Manisanda (9/4), Western Walk (10/3), Changing The Rules (4/1), Boulon Trou (5/1), Fancy A Cosmo (13/2), Polo Express (14/1), Sarsfield (16/1), Silver Gazette (20/1), Will It Be You (20/1), Ladiam (33/1), Ask The Chimneys (33/1), Toss Again (50/1), Lobato (66/1), Strong Whisper (66/1), Padraigs Boy (100/1), Meeauldsegotia (150/1), Ard Monarch (200/1)

DARTAN failed to build on his hurdles debut promise when down the field at Leopardstown in December, but conditions would've been plenty soft enough for him that day and he is appealing returned to this sphere following back-to-back victories in handicaps on the Flat. Changing The Rules and Western Walk both remain open to improvement and are greatly respected, while Fancy A Cosmo also enters calculations.
