Forecasts

Ballymoy (10/3), Mont Des Avaloirs (9/2), Global Citizen (5/1), Whatswrongwithyou (5/1), Lisp (8/1), Whatmore (9/1), Voodoo Doll (12/1), What's Occurring (16/1), Gumball (16/1)

Verdict

This is always an interesting contest and can often throw up a horse capable of going on to much better things. Global Citizen may struggle to concede weight all round on ground softer than ideal, while Whatswrongwithyou, Gumball and Whatmore may also be in the handicapper's grip. Mont Des Avaloirs is interesting back over hurdles and Lisp is a progressive sort, but the vote goes to BALLYMOY, who is on a roll, will relish underfoot conditions and can continue to defy the handicapper. What's Occuring is another to consider.
  1. Ballymoy
  2. Lisp
  3. Mont Des Avaloirs
