Forecasts

Dromore Glory (2/1), Deed Pole (9/2), Gardone (5/1), Esticky End (7/1), Slowdownbarney (8/1), Glyde Ranger (8/1), Warrior Lion (12/1), Newfire (22/1), Streetscape (25/1), Zentopia (25/1), Pegasus Of Harry (25/1), Flier (40/1), Gregorina (66/1), So Diligent (80/1), Thegooseiscooked (80/1), Latin (100/1), Sing A New Song (125/1)

DROMORE GLORY hasn't finished out of the first 2 in his 3 handicap starts here and is taken to gain compensation for Friday's near miss. Colin Keane's mount Deed Pole is another with a solid course record and heads the dangers along with Slowdownbarney and Glyde Ranger.
