Forecasts

Verdict

CHESS GRAND MASTER has some solid form to his name including when runner-up at Galway three weeks ago. Jockey Tom Hamilton has a 31% strike-rate (4/13) when teaming up with Joseph O'Brien-trained individuals so far this season and the pair can take this concluding contest. Days Without End is related to a couple of useful individuals and is taken to claim second on debut ahead of Dream Baie who is another from the Joseph O'Brien stable.
  1. Chess Grand Master
  2. Days Without End
  3. Dream Baie
