Forecasts

Msassa (1/4), Park Paddocks (13/2), Torcello (7/1), Galtymore (10/1), Achiever (12/1), Ontheiflist (20/1), Freedom Chimes (33/1), Young Dev (66/1), Canford Lady (100/1)

Verdict

Torcello and Achiever are two interesting recruits with the former having developed into a smart handicapper on the Flat. Galtymore has the ability to win an average Wexford maiden, but it may take something special to beat the Mullins' newcomer MSASSA. The French import ran in what turned out to be a very hot race on his debut with two Grade 3 winners finishing just ahead of him, including one who was narrowly beaten in the equivalent of the Triumph Hurdle.
  1. Msassa
