Forecasts

Thunder Speed (7/2), Carried (4/1), Shannon Soul (5/1), Suitor (6/1), Mandarin Monarch (7/1), Abraham (7/1), Poitin (12/1), Boherbuoy (12/1), Here For The Craic (16/1), Mainicin (20/1), Johann Bach (25/1), Analytical Mindset (25/1), Shalaman (33/1), Introductory (33/1)

Verdict

An open handicap in which cases can be made for Shannon Soul, Carried, Abraham and Thunder Speed. The vote, though, goes to SUITOR, who has shaped well in a couple of hurdles since joining his powerful yard and may have more to offer back on the AW given his record of one win from two starts. At the bottom of the handicap, Analytical Mindset and Mandarin Monarch are likely to have their supporters.
  1. Suitor
  2. Carried
  3. Thunder Speed
