Bookies share festival fears

'Who do we fear? Put simply, the Irish'
a similar 'greenwash' again this year.
Mullins shuffles his powerful pack
it could be the last race of his career.

Do not mind where the winners are trained,
multiple mayhem causing most sleepless nights.
All the ingredients are in place
which sets the handicaps alight.

There will be the plunge horses – as yet unknown
these short ones costly if they all oblige.
Two classy rivals go head-to-head,
handicap horses who come alive.
