Forecasts

Mount Rushmoore (4/6), Le Musee (5/1), Vodka All The Way (9/1), Golden Whisky (9/1), Cereal Killer (12/1), Amzac Magic (12/1), Youngoconnor (50/1), Tequila Secret (66/1), Bit Of A Charlie (100/1), The Imitation Game (100/1), Pacofilha (150/1), Indigo Stamp (250/1)

Verdict

Amzac Magic showed ability in point-to-points and is interesting on his hurdling debut, but the vote goes to MOUNT RUSMOORE, who has shaped well on both starts over hurdles and can get off the mark at the third time of asking. Le Musee can give him most to do, while Youngoconnor looks to be the best of the mares.
  1. Mount Rushmoore
  2. Le Musee
  3. Amzac Magic
