Forecasts

Joyful Tidings (7/4), Sup Of Red (2/1), Noodles (6/1), Bay Of Supremacy (7/1), Sovereign Thought (8/1), Baker Blue (14/1), Chicana (20/1), Arugam Bay (33/1), Love Bomb (50/1), Sapphire Dream (66/1), Offbeat (100/1), Portmagee Girl (100/1), Itsnotme (125/1)

The market should prove highly informative but SUP OF RED shaped well on her recent debut when runner-up at Cork and with improvement on the cards she can go one better. Noodles could emerge as the chief threat on the back of his encouraging debut Curragh third, with newcomers Sovereign Thought, Baker Blue and Bay of Supremacy also in the picture.
