Forecasts

Turcagua (1/2), Ballela Boy (11/2), Kaiser Black (11/2), The Green Lady (10/1), Hanover Street (20/1), Cowboy Des Long (25/1), Irish Mustard (66/1), Rock On Westie (66/1), Brave Light (100/1)

Verdict

Hanover Street and The Green Lady could possibly be the early runners to contest the lead here with Rock On Westie chasing in behind in the opener. The pace on the ground could be a strong advantage for the Gordon Elliott-trained Ballela Boy who, under Davy Russell can give the potential improver TURCAGUA the most to think about as the pair battle for the honours.
  1. Turcagua
  2. Ballela Boy
  3. The Green Lady
