Forecasts

First Response (9/10), Captain Dan (10/3), King Of Leinster (11/2), Stranagone (12/1), Country Garden (12/1), Where To Next (16/1), Joe The Crow (16/1), Tuileries Garden (50/1), Zanzadee (50/1), Dark Honey (66/1), Iseebreeze (66/1), Sweat Equity (100/1)

Verdict

Very difficult to see past the Khalid Abdullah-owned, Ger Lyons-trained FIRST RESPONSE here with the First Defence gelding not having to improve much on his first two starts to land the spoils here. Third on debut here over 6f last month, Captain Dan may emerge as the biggest danger along with the Zoffany gelding, King Of Leinster. The J J Murphy yard are usually in good form around this time of year here and their, Country Garden may go well at a price.
