Forecasts

Wild Mandate (5/2), Tea It Is (7/2), Aclass (6/1), Swing Time (7/1), Stonecarthy (8/1), Nazine (9/1), Loup De Tallane (9/1), Boola Times (10/1), Cher Tara (11/1), Clonclough Lady (11/1), Ballinaboola Jet (14/1), Jerisk Star (16/1), Evening's Empire (22/1), Mags Collins (25/1), Monty's Way (33/1), Fear The Deere (33/1)

WILD MANDATE showed much-improved form when second at Sligo 45 days ago in first-time blinkers and tongue strap, and looks capable of breaking her maiden soon. Tea It Is is reliable in handicaps and may appreciate the longer trip, having run well at Listowel until hampered after the second-last. Stonecarthy showed promise when staying on for second on his handicap hurdle debut and is another to consider.
