Forecasts

Wonder Laish (1/2), Mount Hanover (2/1), Iusetaluvheronce (10/3), An'ball (7/1), Rock Lobster (14/1), Barna Venture (33/1), Ventura Boulevard (33/1), Hip Hop Dancer (40/1)

Verdict

Mount Hanover was a costly purchase and went well on his sole point-to-point outing, any confidence behind him ahead of this rules bow could prove noteworthy. Iusetaluvheronce finished second at Killarney last time and has his chance while An'ball too has fair claims if able to repeat the effort shown on debut at Tipperary in July (since flopped in a bumper). It might be worth chancing the once 94-rated Flat performer WONDER LAISH however, who has run ok in two starts back from a long layoff and could have a future at this game.
  1. Wonder Laish
