Forecasts

Call It Magic (2/1), Riviera Sun (9/2), Oscar Lantern (9/2), Dromnea (11/2), The Winkler (8/1), Damut (10/1), He Rock's (16/1), Aranhill Chief (20/1)

Verdict

This looks a good opportunity for the youngest horse in the lineup CALL IT MAGIC under Ruby Walsh. He was very impressive at Ballinrobe and could remain ahead of the handicapper despite an 8lb rise. Chief rival looks to be Riviera Sun who had a couple of these behind when winning well over course and distance in August. Of the rest the consistent The Winkler could prove best now better off at the weights with Riviera Sun.
  1. Call It Magic
  2. Riviera Sun
  3. The Winkler
