Forecasts

Los Blanco (4/5), Letos (2/1), Ma Jacks Hill (11/4), Fierce Handay (7/2), O'Reilly (7/1), Cailin Deas (8/1), Dancing Dame (20/1), Rainbow Connection (28/1), Pavilion End (66/1), Barrogstown Girl (80/1), Youneedabitofluck (150/1), Jack Inthe Jukebox (150/1), Ardgillan (200/1), Mount Hotham (200/1), Grandioso (300/1)

Though LOS BLANCO was disappointing when turned over at odds on at Naas during the spring, he remains of strong interest in view of his highly promising hurdles debut third at the same course in January. French import Letos is a big threat judged on his fine second in a Fairyhouse maiden in April and is the clear main danger. O'Reilly is third choice ahead of likely improver Fierce Handay.
