Forecasts

Banntown Girl (8/13), Conyers Hill (5/2), Marciano (6/1), Pro Bono (14/1), Irish Envoy (16/1), Madhenry (25/1), Got Arc Eye (25/1), Electric Eddy (25/1), Dreamscomethrough (33/1), Thornleigh Frank (50/1), Singing The Blues (50/1), Ounce Of Gold (100/1), Leis Fein (125/1), Humanitarian (150/1), Too Easy Mate (150/1), Dotie Boy (150/1), Old Lonesome Me (150/1), Brogue Belle (150/1)

BANNTOWN GIRL let favourite backers down here last time but has the best form and gets one more chance. Conyers Hill is shaping up nicely and can give the selection most to do ahead of Marciano, who showed promise when fifth on last month's Clonmel debut.
