Forecasts

Walkonthebriteside (9/2), Calahill (5/1), Tuff Days (11/2), Ardaghs Choice (6/1), Inchidaly Copper (15/2), Cafe Del Mar (8/1), Three By Two (11/1), Bearwithmenow (11/1), Second Subaltern (12/1), King And Queen (12/1), Irish Envoy (14/1), Desert Heather (14/1), Glenmalure Lodge (16/1), Steelers Appeal (20/1), Agirlcalledchloe (20/1), Stormy Master (22/1), Larkfield Legacy (25/1), Riggs (40/1), Three Loud Knocks (100/1)

CALAHILL opened his Rules account in a Downpatrick handicap chase four days ago and looks capable of following up under a penalty, provided that this doesn't come too soon. Next on the list is Walkonthebriteside, who scored over hurdles here earlier this month and will be a threat if taking to fences at the first attempt, a remark which also applies to Cafe del Mar. Recent C&D 1-2 Three By Two and Bearwithmenow also enter calculations.
