Forecasts

Sights Unseen (3/1), Nazine (4/1), Gortmore Lady (4/1), Karloss (4/1), Kingkong Ciergues (6/1), Loughrask Rainbow (10/1), Mister Vic (12/1), No Fussing (14/1), Moonshine Girl (16/1), Kalaroun (20/1), Ladies Well (25/1), Younowhatimean (25/1), Glens Sensation (25/1), Ask Phil (25/1), Whatyouwant (33/1), Back The West (33/1), Miss Laura (50/1), Wee Vee (50/1), Western Opera (50/1)

NAZINE was unfortunate to bump into one at Kilbeggan 11 days ago and could be ready to strike eased another 2 lb. Karloss made a positive start for this yard when fourth at Clonmel and is next best ahead of Sights Unseen and Gortmore Lady.
