Small Farm (1/1), Thosedaysaregone (9/2), The Shunter (13/2), Itscatrionaschoice (7/1), Moratorium (9/1), Elusive Exclusive (16/1), Perito Moreno (16/1), Captain Leo (20/1), Why Stop Now (66/1)

Verdict

Thosedaysaregone, Itscatrionaschoice and The Shunter have all shown reasonable form which puts them in the picture for making the frame at least. However, they face a potentially stiff task as Willie Mullins unleashes another promising recruit from the point-to-point field in SMALL FARM. The stable have a 50% strike rate in similar races over the past three months. The form of his Ballinaboola victory has substance and it is hard to look beyond him.
