Forecasts

Giant Spirit (2/1), Last Minute Man (11/4), Amschel (5/1), Plan Of Attack (7/1), Punches Cross (10/1), The Long Mile (14/1), Dix De Der (14/1), Lord In Red (14/1), Madison To Monroe (16/1), Smitty Bacall (20/1), Redwood Castle (20/1), All For Nothing (33/1), Scorpion Knight (50/1), Fethard Flyer (50/1), Holy Moses (50/1), Sheldon Cooper (66/1), Hyman Roth (66/1), Class Pa (100/1)

Verdict

A battle-royal may ensue between the top two stable here with preference for the Paul and Clare Rooney-owned LAST MINUTE MAN who can build on his two runner-up spots recently while the Willie Mullins-trained Giant Spirit will provide stiff opposition being an improving sort who is sure to go well for yard still bang in form. The interesting and possible improver Amshchel and the Henry De Bromhead-trained Plan Of Attack are deserving of consideration for the places.
  1. Last Minute Man
  2. Giant Spirit
  3. Amschel
