Forecasts

Noli Timere (11/5), Medieval Night (9/2), Flying Bay (11/2), Neo Smart (13/2), Daler (7/1), Auburn Avenue (9/1), Loingseoir (14/1), Imposing Supreme (18/1), Exquisite Acclaim (25/1), Anvika (28/1)

MEDIEVAL NIGHT was clear of the rest when runner-up on handicap debut at Leopardstown earlier this month and remains low mileage. He can land the spoils. Noli Timere and Loingseoir may provide the chief threat.
