Forecasts

Achill Road Boy (3/1), Nortonthorpelegend (7/2), Nakadam (11/2), Lochnell (7/1), Presented (7/1), Orioninverness (7/1), Smuggler's Stash (10/1), Shanroe Street (12/1), Alfred Oats (18/1), Valzan (40/1), Silverton (40/1)

Verdict

A reasonably good case can be made for over half of this field, with the vote just going to SMUGGLER'S STASH. Proven both on heavy ground and over further than this, a repeat of his Hexham run from last month would give him a decent chance from today's mark. Nortonthorpelegend enters calculations, though his latest 2lb nudge upwards plus a lack of heavy ground form has us looking elsewhere. Nakadam is not ruled out, though he tends to find something to beat him, while Achill Road Boy will relish conditions, Lochnell loves this track and Presented acts on both and also on a good mark. All four could be in the mix.
  1. Smuggler's Stash
  2. Achill Road Boy
  3. Nakadam
