Forecasts

Bucaneer's Spirit (4/1), Shigar (13/2), Sea Chariot (7/1), Gibbs Island (7/1), Livio Milo (8/1), Little Empire (17/2), Perfect Poise (9/1), Imposing Supreme (10/1), Annexation (14/1), Nituna (14/1), Punk Poet (16/1), Pralognan (16/1), Munroh (20/1), Something Nice (25/1), Lust (33/1), Thompson Gunner (40/1), Dabana (50/1), Big Baby Bull (80/1), Dear Daphne (100/1), Takeachancejimmy (100/1)

PUNK POET caught the eye dropped down to a barely adequate trip on return from 8 months off when fourth at Naas and could be the answer returned to a suitable distance. This does look competitive, though, with Nituna, Bucaneer's Spirit and Imposing Supreme heading the dangers.
