Forecasts

Crack Mome (4/11), Any Second Now (6/1), Runfordave (9/1), Dr Mikey (14/1), Coquine D'aunou (18/1), Calino D'Airy (33/1)

Verdict

An intriguing six-runner field where none are easily ruled out. CRACK MOME obliged without muss fuss on his Clonmel debut and runner-up Coquine D'aunou has since landed a facile Limerick success to frank that form. Hard to see those placings reversed here. Run For Dave took a fall last time out and with the drop in trip, he has questions to answer on his fourth hurdles start. Any Second Now was a shock debut winner and, while he did it well, Dr Mikey potentially rates a bigger danger if permitted a handy lead. 1. Crack Mome 2. Dr Mikey 3. Coquine D'aunou
