Betting Forecast

5/1 Tannery Park, 16/1 Bearami Creek, 12/1 Madame Masque, 8/1 Its Time Again, 5/1 Run For The Border, 14/1 Vroomvroomboo, 14/1 Coppola, 33/1 Ranger Billy, 12/1 Whatyouwant, 33/1 Not So Serious, 20/1 Tantrum Boy, 25/1 Coole Vision, 25/1 Will It Be You, 33/1 Lost Features, 16/1 John Dixen, 20/1 Sineads Fancy, Light Her Up, My Good Pal, Ballinaboola Hanna

Verdict

John Ryan’s good run of form may continue with RUN FOR THE BORDER, who can build on a pleasing return to action at Limerick in May. It’s Time Again, who is noteworthy as a three-time course winner, signalled a return to form by running well up to the point of her exit at the second-last at Limerick last month. If fully fit after a long layoff, Tannery Park could go close. [Alan Sweetman]
