Forecasts

Aurora Bell (4/1), Katnap (9/2), Thomond (6/1), Bearly Legal (13/2), Courtncatcher (7/1), Eiri Na Casca (10/1), After Aspen (10/1), Fr Humphrey (10/1), Forty Foot Tom (20/1), Tavern Times (20/1), Sir Harry Cash (20/1), Bottle Rattler (25/1)

Verdict

Eiri Na Casca should be well suited by this step up in trip and looks likely to get involved in the finish while the frustrating Katnap gets another chance to prove himself on second start for current trainer. Aurora Bell let his supporters down when last seen but this trip and the likely ground can see him to much better effect. COURTNCATCHER hasn't been harshly treated for last month's C&D success and will take beating if replicating that effort while runner-up Thomond should also be there or thereabouts again. 1. Courtncatcher 2. Aurora Bell 3. Eiri Na Casca
