Forecasts

Classic Place (11/10), Westland Row (2/1), Atlantic Breaker (7/1), Ballyhowne (12/1), Notorious One (14/1), Goin My Way (16/1), Sally Wing (20/1), New Stream (25/1), Steel Shadow (33/1), Beeper's Ruby (33/1), Supreme Ambition (40/1)

Verdict

In the hope that he can find his bumper form again, CLASSIC PLACE is given another chance in a race that will take little winning. It's possible he found the combination of a staying trip and heavy ground too much to handle last time and is worth another try. Notorious One seems to be taking small steps forward on each run and can get in the money along with Ballyhowne.
