Forecasts

Douglas Dc (9/4), Nostra Casa (3/1), Ballybaun Star (16/5), Kalmira (8/1), Swelltime (17/2), Celtic Revival (9/1), All In Peder (14/1), Tory Reel (14/1), Rock On Pedro (14/1), Jawhary (20/1), Kalu Pande (20/1), Benkei (25/1), Make The Switch (33/1), Punters Poet (50/1), Surviving Murmansk (80/1), Allhart (125/1)

NOSTRA CASA was well on top when making a successful return at Sligo and can go in again if building on that with Colin Keane up now. Douglas DC and Rock On Pedro are respected.
