Forecasts

Janoobi (4/1), Mr Rango (4/1), Duke Of Leggagh (4/1), Ramiro (8/1), Sirjack Thomas (9/1), Nahori (9/1), Solar Breeze (12/1), Zephron (16/1), Spanish Tenor (16/1), Hurricane Ivor (16/1), Fiver Friday (25/1), Loingseoir (28/1), Verhoyen (50/1), Queenie St Clair (66/1), Orandi (100/1), Amanirenas (100/1)

LOINGSEOIR is dangerously well handicapped and might be worth chancing to leave Monday's reappearance run over an inadequate 5f at the Curragh well behind and resume winning ways. Spanish Tenor, who tasted success in this race in 2022, and Sirjack Thomas are two with a chance for the Ado McGuinness yard. Zephron and Mr Rango are others with claims in a race where the market could prove informative.
