Forecasts

Rockbury Lad (5/1), Mount Ruapehu (5/1), Higher Kingdom (5/1), Free Solo (6/1), Blue Wood (13/2), Pandion Power (15/2), Vierson (15/2), Dynamic Force (8/1), Prince Of Eyeries (11/1), Nezeeh (14/1), The Bog Bank (14/1), Relevant Range (16/1), Takeachancejimmy (33/1)

Verdict

HIGHER KINGDOM ran well at Gowran on Wednesday and could be the way to go. Pandion Power should be closer to his best on the back of his Curragh return, while The Bog Bank must be respected given her good Bellewstown record.
