Forecasts

Sharetheknowledge (5/2), Chosen Shant (10/3), Splendid Choice (10/3), Ballycommon Chapel (4/1), Surviving Murmansk (5/1), Cruisin Susan (7/1), Sidiriya (10/1), Tennesse Boy (12/1), The Border Boy (12/1), Stormy Jenn (16/1), Cailin Aibrean (16/1), Bearami Creek (18/1), Kate Ill Know (25/1), Belle Of Boston (25/1), Kir Royal Blou (33/1), Slea Head (33/1), Ladybela (40/1)

A first taste of success beckons for SHARETHEKNOWLEDGE, who has made the frame all 3 starts at around 19f since returning from a break in March and this drop back in trip is likely to work in his favour. C&D scorer Splendid Choice is taken to emerge as the main danger, with Chosen Shant also accorded respect.
