Forecasts

Catherine Chroi (3/1), Jazzy Dancer (5/1), Cherry Bloom (7/1), Rocky Dreams (8/1), Juno Beach (10/1), Amanirenas (11/1), Eriskay (12/1), Maestro Stick (14/1), Patsy Fagan (16/1), Caesar's Comet (16/1), Florence Thompson (20/1), Purring Along (20/1), Sovereignty (20/1), It Might Be You (22/1), Even Flow (22/1), El Maga (28/1), Kratos (33/1), Pastel Power (33/1)

CATHERINE CHROI arrives at the top of her game and, having found only one too good in a big field at Navan last time, she's fancied to go one better in what appears to be a slightly less-competitive affair. Eriskay returns on a reduced mark with blinkers applied for the first time, so he's worthy of interest, while Jazzy Dancer can't be ruled stepping back up in trip.
