Forecasts

Wee Charlie (5/1), Koori Star (5/1), Vischio (11/2), Whatsafellatodo (7/1), Whiskeywealth (15/2), Wajaaha (15/2), Rockbrook (10/1), Dont Go Yet (11/1), Son Of Hypnos (14/1), Mary's Pride (16/1), Zoffanien (16/1), The Little Yank (22/1), Soldante (25/1), Timourid (28/1), Red Ball Of Fire (33/1), Summer Melody (66/1)

WAJAAHA is in a fine streak of form in handicap hurdles and can end his losing run. Dont Go Yet and Vischio are a couple of the dangers, with Wee Charlie having a 14 lb rise to overcome in his bid for a Galway hat-trick.
