Forecasts

Whatsafellatodo (10/3), Skippin Court (4/1), General Clermont (4/1), Freddie Robdal (5/1), Itsalonglongroad (11/2), Jack Holiday (6/1), Time Marches On (8/1), Coole Arcade (11/1), Another Ocana (16/1), Mc Alpine (28/1)

SKIPPIN COURT has yet to win over fences but he took a big step back in the right direction after a short break when fourth in a better race than this at Listowel 2 weeks ago so he could be the answer. Last-time-out winners Itsalonglongroad and Another Ocana head the dangers.
