Forecasts

Tyrconnell (4/1), Dandys Gold (4/1), Gunmaker (5/1), Luna's Luck (5/1), Aubineau (7/1), Cracking Name (7/1), Smart Stinger (10/1), Ducky Mallon (12/1), Diable d'Or (16/1), Victorious Secret (20/1), Oor Jock (33/1)

Verdict

LUNA'S LUCK was impressive enough last time out when winning in game fashion and a 5lb rise may not be enough to stop him here. Smart Stinger is another course and distance winner who ran well last time out while Cracking Name could hardly be in better form at present.
  1. Luna's Luck
  2. Smart Stinger
