Forecasts

Lauroline (7/4), Morse (9/4), Gioiella (10/3), Charlie Brow'n (8/1), Easy Way (11/1), Jupiter Rock (22/1), Eirinn Rua (28/1), Calmafterthestorm (50/1), The Shadow Lingers (66/1), Little Empire (66/1), Miss Aytan (80/1), Star With A Spark (80/1), Cyprus Springs (100/1), Vector Belle (125/1), Cloughaneely Mor (200/1)

MORSE showed improved form 16 months on from his debut when third over 10.7f here a fortnight ago and with that outing sure to have blown away any cobwebs, Charles Weld's 4-y-o gets the nod over Lauroline, who shaped with promise under this rider when third over C&D on return earlier this month. Gioiella and Jupiter Rock are another couple not out of things.
