Forecasts

Lets Go Champ (11/8), Dancing Jeremy (15/8), Hgranca De Thaix (7/2), Teescomponentsyess (8/1), Coqolino (11/1), The Little Yank (18/1)

LETS GO CHAMP went down only to the smart Embassy Gardens at Punchestown when last seen in December and can make a successful switch to handicaps with further progress likely. Last month's Thurles winner Dancing Jeremy can give him most to think about.
