Forecasts

September Leaves (2/1), Tachos (4/1), Blue Soul (6/1), Orandi (13/2), Brewel Hill (10/1), Lexington Dash (11/1), Gandolfo (14/1), Academy Winner (14/1), Ice Cold In Alex (14/1), Cordouan (14/1), Blackcastle Storm (16/1), Not Forgotten (16/1), Moyassr (16/1), Alto Sax (16/1), Redemptive Power (20/1), Purple Sky (33/1), Gotta Catch'em All (66/1), Takeachancejimmy (80/1)

ICE COLD IN ALEX wasn't seen to best effect at the Curragh last time and might be worth another chance to take advantage of a mark which is lenient even on the best of this year's form. Dermot Weld's Tachos returns to the scene of her win in June and heads the many dangers along with Blue Soul. Moyassr is a handicap newcomer keep an eye on in the betting, while Orandi would also enter the reckoning if getting a run.
