Forecasts

Petrou (5/2), Fact Of The Matter (10/3), Ballyboker Breeze (7/2), Good Man Vinnie (4/1), Knockaderry Flyer (13/2), Lofgren (8/1), No Duffer (11/1), Upswing (14/1), Silver Man (28/1)

Verdict

The eased in grade Petrou is a definite for the shortlist with past course winning form in the book coupled with the fact that the Skelton's are knocking in winners left right and centre, whilst the hat-trick seeking Good Man Vinnie needs more from a upwardly rising handicap mark. However, we'll take a chance on the top-weight NO DUFFER. He likes to front run and at a track which will play to those strengths also has conditions to suit (3m, good ground).
  1. No Duffer
  2. Ballyboker Breeze
  3. Petrou
