Forecasts

Huckleberry Rock (10/3), Tohellortoconnacht (7/2), Creggsman (7/2), Arrycan (9/2), Added Bonus (9/1), We'llgowats (12/1), Joan Of Pimlico (14/1), Holditinyourhead (16/1), Getaway Master (20/1), Ballyeden Lass (22/1), Capture The Drama (33/1), Lough Manor (33/1), The Royal Pump (33/1), Lady L'lerom (33/1), What Ever Oscar (33/1), Eversosaucy (40/1), Chief Seattle (40/1)

ARRYCAN should have a race in him off his lower hurdle mark so he gets the nod in a contest where few arrive with compelling claims. Tohellortoconnacht has been placed on both starts since fitted with cheekpieces and ought to be on the premises again. Added Bonus and Joan of Pimilico also make the shortlist.
