Forecasts

Letiza (10/3), Passionate (11/2), September Leaves (11/2), Alabama Calling (6/1), Emporio (7/1), Gerrit's Gem (11/1), Moltophino (11/1), Livio Milo (14/1), Loingseoir (16/1), Casanova (16/1), Walhaan (20/1), Gunzburg (28/1)

LIVIO MILO would have gone closer at Laytown but for a gap closing on him when he was starting to look threatening. He's back with his usual headgear on off the same mark and looks set for a big run. Casanova won well at Listowel last week and has to be respected again. Passionate and Letiza, starting out for Henry de Bromhead, complete the shortlist.
