Forecasts

Charlie Luciano (10/3), Nostra Casa (5/1), Make Good (5/1), Weather Alert (7/1), Sir Allen (17/2), Master Dunraven (10/1), Jake Peter (10/1), Barometer (11/1), Kings Prince (12/1), Zileo (12/1), Annecherie (22/1), Killeemore Lad (25/1), Crystal Caves (33/1), Harvest Bow (50/1)

MAKE GOOD has clearly had his problems but he's potential well handicapped on hurdles form so could be worth chancing back from another absence. Nostra Casa and Barometer head the dangers.
