Forecasts

The Wallpark (4/7), Ninth Loch (4/1), Minella Diamond (9/2), Morph Speed (5/1), Zoomtime (5/1), Spy (8/1), Duty Bound (20/1), Scottish Dancer (25/1), Fascinating Story (33/1), Dark Image (40/1), Phoenix Cowboy (40/1), Team Of Firsts (50/1), Back To Toledo (50/1), Inchidaly Robin (80/1), Younowhatimean (100/1), Applicationofcash (125/1), The Border Boy (150/1), Mondragon De Barat (150/1)

THE WALLPARK got off the mark starting out for this yard in a Downpatrick bumper and sets the standard back over hurdles. Bumper-winner Ninth Loch is an obvious threat starting out on this sphere, with Minella Diamond and Spy other likely contenders.
