Forecasts

Run The Jewels (4/1), The Mpex Kid (13/2), Star Of Cashel (8/1), Dazzling Spirit (9/1), Pulse Of Shanghai (9/1), No Patience (11/1), Fastman (12/1), Bobby Dassler (14/1), Miss Molly T (14/1), Ferrybank (14/1), Trueba (16/1), Sevenal (16/1), Pollanassa (16/1), Endless Season (20/1), Hector Berlioz (22/1), Inflection Point (28/1), Showmolina (28/1), Amanirenas (28/1), Sheila (33/1), Patrick Street (50/1), Merlins Muse (66/1)

RUN THE JEWELS resumed progress in no uncertain terms when landing a 12-runner handicap at Listowel with a strong-travelling performance last month and he gets the marginal vote to add to his excellent strike rate at the likely expense of Star Cashel. Dazzling Spirit is also worth considering after her comfortable success at Killarney 5 days ago.
