Forecasts

Waterville Dancer (11/10), Park Paddocks (7/2), Galtymore (11/2), Torcello (8/1), Aquarian (8/1), The Big Galloper (14/1), Perfect Soldier (16/1), Moonball (40/1), Magic In The Night (40/1), Lesssaidthebetter (50/1), Wolfofallstreets (50/1), Wicket (50/1), Design Matters (66/1), Bright Lass (66/1), Loose Chippings (66/1)

Verdict

Galtymore could cut out the running here in the early stages with Perfect Soldier, Torcello and Waterville Dancer possibly chasing in behind. The Gordon Elliott-trained PARK PADDOCKS shouldn't be too far back off the pace and Keith Donoghue will be waiting for the right time to send his mount for home. Perfect Soldier and Torcello can eventually battle for the place positions.
  1. Park Paddocks
  2. Perfect Soldier
  3. Torcello
