Forecasts

Vinnie Lewis (7/2), Shanroe Santos (7/1), Shotgun Paddy (7/1), Leo Luna (8/1), Henri Parry Morgan (8/1), Bears Rails (8/1), Milansbar (8/1), Clondaw Cian (10/1), Bindon Mill (10/1), Frank N Fair (11/1), Coolking (12/1), Rathlin Rose (14/1), Big Meadow (25/1)

Verdict

Shotgun Paddy has slipped to a very attractive mark and if the Emma Lavelle stable had been in a bit better form then he would have been close to being selected here, though preference is for the unexposed VINNIE LEWIS, who is on the up and is taken to continue where he left off when winning easily at Sedgefield. Leo Luna and Coolking are both very interesting representatives for Gary Moore and the latter has plenty going for him except recent form, which has to be a concern. Frank N Fair loves it here but has some improving to do at this level, while Shanroe Santos and Henri Parri Morgan are both respected.
