Forecasts

Charlie Buckett (8/11), If You Let Me (7/2), A Tipp For Gold (8/1), Seatoit (12/1), Slieve Carran (16/1), Drumgill (20/1), Tankardstown Diva (22/1), Cola Blaze (25/1), Stickman (33/1), Whataboutyapaddy (40/1), Fernhill Fling (80/1)

CHARLIE BUCKETT is bred to come into his own at further, but he's out of a bumper winner and in a yard that has an excellent record in this sphere, so makes plenty of appeal. Tankardstown Diva and If You Let Me can show the benefit of their initial outings and are feared most.
