Mizaah (3/1), Not A Bad Oul Day (9/2), Club Wexford (11/2), Secret Wizard (13/2), Shepherd's Purse (8/1), Ishebayorgrey (9/1), Northern Surprise (10/1), Araqeel (11/1), Rosenborg Rider (25/1)

Verdict

The front-running Not A Bad Oul Day should give this another bold sight but there do appear to be one or two better equipped rivals to close him down this time. Secret Wizard produced his best effort to date here recently and cannot be discounted from a follow up whilst Club Wexford is respected but has a penalty to carry for his midweek win at Naas. Mizaah should be on the premises again but this might prove a perfect starting point in handicaps for ARAQEEL, winner of a Leopardstown maiden on his only start last year and surely capable of doing a lot better for the Weld team.
  1. Araqeel
  2. Club Wexford
  3. Not A Bad Oul Day
