Forecasts

Saturn Seven (5/2), Danvers Gold (11/4), Roaming Star (4/1), Machnamh (5/1), Sibyl Charm (8/1), Daisy Jones (8/1), Inablink (14/1), Nelda (14/1), Mimosa Park (25/1), Hope And Innocence (28/1), Ostraka (50/1), Thunder Dance (66/1), Miracle Nation (100/1), Giocoso (150/1), Contradanza (250/1), Dark Willow (250/1)

DANVERS GOLD did well under the circumstances when third in a big field here in June and he remains a useful prospect despite his absence. Sibyl Charm is worth another chance to confirm debut promise so is next best ahead of Machnamh, who took a step forward when fourth at Naas.
