Forecasts

Rio Lobo (15/8), Churchtown Glen (7/2), Shakeytry (5/1), Miss Echrad (6/1), Cloudybackwest (8/1), Petite Gina (10/1), Chin'up (12/1), Dan Gun (18/1), Realta Dawn (20/1), Aldawayfornothing (33/1), Mary Fields (33/1), Love The Well (50/1), Artic Quest (66/1)

Verdict

MISS ECHRAD can build on a couple of promising runs in handicap hurdles to date and can put his experience to good use here. Cloudybackwest's run at Limerick last month is better than it looks and can hit the frame along with game and tricky sort Churchtown Glen improving towards the business end of the race. Any money for Rio Lobo should be noted while the form has been generally disappointing and is obviously a tricky character.
