Forecasts

Apache Pilot (10/3), Away Down West (7/2), Tommy O'dwyer (11/2), Lakefield Rebel (7/1), Frank The Slink (8/1), Down Time (8/1), Treat Yourself (12/1), Ballygrooby Bertie (20/1), Captain Sharpe (22/1)

Verdict

Mediocre fayre again here and Micky Hammond probably holds the key with a pair of runners, one of which is suggested in FRANK THE SLINK. A repeat of his last run here might just prove good enough today, though stablemate Treat Yourself can't be ruled out despite top weight. Ballygrooby Bertie and Apache Pilot again have claims.
  1. Frank The Slink
  2. Ballygrooby Bertie
  3. Treat Yourself
