Forecasts

Barometer (7/4), Rich Belief (4/1), Mr Coldstone (11/2), Arabian King (6/1), Anna Bunina (13/2), Sequoiaspirit (15/2), Razdan (15/2), Advantage Point (12/1), Bring Us Paradise (14/1), Burren Song (18/1), Missy Zippy (66/1)

Classy hurdler ANNA BUNINA may be up to giving the weight away back on the Flat. The Willie Mullins-trained Mr Coldstone caught the eye a bit at Leopardstown last month and and heads the dangers along with recent Tramore winner Barometer.
