Forecasts

Snugsborough Benny (5/2), Net D'Ecosse (5/1), Jack Slade (5/1), Miss Sassie (7/1), Top Of The Town (8/1), Sea Light (9/1), Shanpallas (9/1), Supreme Vinnie (10/1), Ballyegan Hero (12/1), Bosco Di Alco (12/1), Aranhill Chief (14/1), Phil The Flyer (16/1), Surf Instructor (20/1), The Gatechecker (20/1), Inis Meain (25/1)

Verdict

You can make a case for plenty of these. Top Of The Town could show more now and is respected. Bosco Di Alco is getting the hang of things over fences and could go well. Clear preference here is for MISS SASSIE who won with loads in hand last time and can take this despite her 9lb rise.
  1. Miss Sassie
  2. Top Of The Town
  3. Bosco Di Alco
