Forecasts

Farmers Lodge (3/1), Tonaghneave Well (6/1), In For The Night (15/2), Aeros Luck (11/1), Falcon Eight (12/1), Warm In Gorey (12/1), Old Bill Barley (12/1), Serienmond (12/1), Heliko Conti (16/1), Golden Joy (16/1), Dancing Jeremy (16/1), Barry Lyndon (18/1), Harsh (20/1), Banprionsa (20/1), Krabat (28/1), Cozone (28/1), Queen Nel (33/1), Kells Priory (33/1), Mary's Pride (40/1), Torquay Road (40/1), Shanroe (50/1), Wa Wa (50/1), Petit King (50/1), Highland Charge (80/1), Hey Johnny (100/1)

TONAGHNEAVE WELL found further progress when second in a Navan handicap last time and this longer trip is in his favour, so he gets the nod in a competitive event. Old Bill Barley, Aeros Lucm and Warm In Gorey are all feasible threats.
