Forecasts

Jack The Wire (6/4), Attribution (5/1), Dicosimo (7/1), Killiney Court (9/1), Mr Fiftyone (10/1), Neverushacon (12/1), Lucky Pat (12/1), Noche De Reyes (12/1), Ronava (12/1), Show And Go (16/1), Kilcarry Bridge (20/1), Gentleman Duke (20/1)

Verdict

JACK THE WIRE can follow up last months Tipperary success by taking this competitive handicap chase. The selection has to defy an 11lb rise following that victory but carries a light weight here and can see off his rivals here. Attribution was the winner of a conditions event last time out and is taken to finish runner-up today while Mr Fiftyone can follow up his Killarney third by filling the same position here.
