Forecasts

Positive Thinker (6/4), Daily Present (11/4), Joshua Webb (5/1), History Of Fashion (13/2), Young Dev (9/1), Fiveaftermidnight (14/1), Magnium (16/1), Cala Di Volpe (40/1)

16:00 Down Royal - 23 January 2024 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

POSITIVE THINKER looked a shade unlucky when suffering defeat for the first time over fences at Fairyhouse last month and can resume winning ways now. Joshua Webb ran well in a course maiden 4 weeks ago and is feared most ahead of Fiveaftermidnight.
