Forecasts

Island Run (7/2), Ballymagroarty Boy (5/1), Ernest Gray (5/1), Shot Boii (7/1), General Probus (10/1), Some Scope (10/1), Ballycamus (11/1), Howaya Now (11/1), Sporting Mike (11/1), Haas Boy (12/1), Grey D'alco (12/1), Coillte Eile (14/1), Young Butler (16/1), Way Out (28/1), Raddon Top (28/1), No Tackle (28/1)

The vote goes to GENERAL PROBUS, who returned from a two-year absence with a solid effort in defeat upped to this trip at Ascot in November and he will surely have a big part to play if all is well following a break. Island Run is greatly respected on the back of his recent Wincanton success but Ernest Gray, who remains relatively unexposed, is feared most. Ballymagroarty Boy, Ballycamus and handicap-debutant Some Scope are others to consider.
