Forecasts

Whoshotthesheriff (6/5), Redfield (7/4), Sizing Pottsie (11/4), The Big Galloper (10/3), Eagle Roque (12/1), Barntown (20/1), Another Katie (20/1), Dancingwith Storms (25/1)

Verdict

In what looks a potentially decent bumper to end proceedings preference is for Jessica Harrington's charge SIZING POTTSIE who was an expensive purchase at the sales last year and who hails from a stable with a 33% strike-rate (2/6) in recent weeks. Redfield hails from a yard who's runners demand the utmost respect in these contests and he can finish second ahead of Eagle Roque, the only one of these to have raced so far.
