Forecasts

Dinnie's Vinnie (11/2), Hedgeinator (6/1), Capture The Drama (6/1), Zekarya (7/1), St Maxime (7/1), Rare Legend (8/1), Spancil Hill (10/1), Ballycahane (10/1), Mount Masada (11/1), Final Gift (12/1), Tiger Sam (12/1), Moss Grove (16/1), Thelobstercatcher (16/1), Fergiethelegend (20/1), Manuka (20/1), Rightback Atya (25/1), Castletown Bridge (33/1)

Verdict

Another contest that looks to be dominated by those at the top of the handicap. Capture The Drama looks likely to put his latest effort behind him and make a bold bid while Zekarya could put his latest run behind him take a hand but my preference is for FINAL GIFT who could build on several recent worthy efforts and prevail.
  1. Final Gift
  2. Capture The Drama
  3. Zekarya
