Forecasts

Hey Johnny (3/1), Marelly (7/2), Lily Of Dromard (5/1), Barbaha Queen (7/1), Go Gill Go (15/2), Bite That (11/1), Downthecellar (12/1), Beeverstown Bullet (14/1), Pharisees (18/1), Legacy Of Dreams (20/1), Our Dylan (22/1), Kings Halo (22/1), Little Mixup (28/1), Johnny Clarke (33/1), Gamigin (33/1), Doyen Rose (33/1), Lyla Garrity (33/1), Danegeld (40/1), Duhallow Rainbow (50/1)

HEY JOHNNY ran to a level more in keeping with his bumper form when third on handicap debut at Punchestown a fortnight ago and with the prospect of more to come, he looks the way to go. Downthecellar and Marelly can offer most resistance.
