Forecasts

Jorge Alvares (7/2), Brigid's Cloak (11/2), Shoney (11/2), Red Evolution (7/1), Agouti Bear (8/1), Saratoga Special (17/2), Lethimfly (17/2), Gazelle D'or (14/1), Sarahmae (14/1), Smoke Them Out (18/1), Tropical Retreat (22/1), Dark Ace (25/1), Bobbi Rosa (25/1), Turners Cross (25/1), Unexpected Issues (28/1)

Verdict

The progressive JORGE ALVARES had several of these rivals behind when beaten a whisker by Red Evolution at Cork recently and, now 2 lb better off with that rival, he is taken to emerge on top this time. Red Evolution is likely to be in the mix once again and is feared most, though unexposed handicap debutante Shoney is also high on the shortlist following last week's ready maiden success at Tipperary.

  1. JORGE ALVARES (IRE)
  2. RED EVOLUTION (IRE)
  3. SHONEY (IRE)
