Forecasts

Hatchet Jack (4/1), Malapie (11/2), Templeross (11/2), Buckle Street (6/1), Clondaw Bisto (9/1), Ballyheigue Bay (10/1), Laugharne (10/1), Pop Rockstar (12/1), Mon Palois (12/1), Kayf Moss (25/1), Three Star General (33/1), Skewiff (33/1)

Verdict

Not easy to solve. Ballyheigue Bay might be allowed an easy time of it on the front and if that's the case, could be hard to pass. MALAPIE has really found his stride now and is winning with a bit in hand, so he may be able to defy his latest weight rise. Hatchet Jack is capable of some improvment as well and looks one of the more interesting ones. He can take second ahead of Pop Rockstar, who is on the hat-trick and might not have finished his good run yet.
  1. Malapie
  2. Hatchet Jack
  3. Pop Rockstar
