Forecasts

Jaunty Thor (5/2), Fairymount Boy (9/2), Conduct Yourself (11/2), Mindsmadeup (11/2), Solar Heat (7/1), Bellgrove (11/1), Linger (14/1), Big Bad Brian (16/1), Aranhill Chief (16/1), Baily Moon (40/1)

Verdict

The inform JAUNTY THOR can land the spoils once again in a weak looking contest and can defy yet another penalty following a perhaps fortunate win at Fairyhouse on Monday after being left at the last. The experience of Bellgrove and Fairymount Boy could see the pair of hitting the frame in this company.
  1. Jaunty Thor
  2. Bellgrove
  3. Fairymount Boy
