Forecasts

Glorious Legend (5/2), Successor (4/1), Papal Motel (4/1), Skeaping (6/1), Ligeti (10/1), Storm Rising (10/1), Diego Manchego (12/1), Edification (12/1), Ormskirk (20/1), Striking Gold (28/1), Getaway Rose (33/1), Repare Mon (33/1), Glamorous Nellie (66/1), In A Pinch (66/1), Lough Derg Voices (66/1)

Verdict

Edification has gone from the front in previous races and there is nothing to suggest any different here. The consistent Skeaping and Ormskirk should be up with the pace, but preference is for the Willie Mullins-trained GLORIOUS LEGEND, who is likely to be a warm order.
  1. Glorious Legend
  2. Skeaping
  3. Ormskirk
