Forecasts

He's Leading Me On (9/4), Sphagnum (5/2), Pour The Wine (13/2), It's Time Again (7/1), Ballinlough Gale (8/1), Zaccarela (11/1), Ciankyle (18/1), Beat Of The Sea (25/1), Banada Bridge (33/1), Zagnzig (40/1), Massons Castle (40/1), Anseo (50/1), Go Large (50/1), La Scala Note (66/1)

HE'S LEADING ME ON had plenty in hand at Tramore last week and might be up to defying a penalty under Sean Flanagan. Sphagnum and Ballinlough Gale are others who arrive in form, while Pour The Wine was better than she showed on handicap debut and is one who could have more to offer for the Peter Fahey team.
