Forecasts

Vado Forte (6/4), Wonder Laish (13/8), Ardamir (7/2), Bal De Rio (8/1), Politicise (10/1), Breffni Brave (12/1), Hooklinesinker (22/1), Longclaw (33/1), Gaius (33/1)

WONDER LAISH will be tough to beat on these terms if anywhere near his best on his return to action, with confidence in his chance increased should the betting vibes be strong. Vado Forte was better than ever when scoring over fences at the recent Galway Festival and can give the selection most to do ahead of the Rachael Blackmore-ridden Ardamir.
