Forecasts

Amber Gambler (8/11), Joseph Mercer (5/1), Best Served Cold (9/1), Benefit In Kind (9/1), Major Ridge (14/1), Fire (20/1), Longueville Flier (25/1), Frank The Slink (25/1), Urban Gale (33/1), Notonebuttwo (33/1), Foot The Bill (40/1), Ballythomas (50/1)

Verdict

Assuming that AMBER GAMBLER has recovered from his exertions over the holiday period, he may prove hard to stop in his bid for a quick hat-trick and is taken to score again. Most of his rivals appear generally out of form so it would not surprise to see Urban Gale challenging for a place along with Longueville Flier, who is open to some improvement. It will be interetsing to see if Joseph Mercer can build on an improved effort over hurdles last time out. 1. Amber Gambler 2. Urban Gale 3. Longueville Flier
