Forecasts

Duc Des Genievres (1/1), A Plus Tard (4/1), Carter Mckay (9/1), Ministerforsport (10/1), Impact Factor (10/1), Ex Patriot (16/1), Turbojet (16/1), Midnight Stroll (25/1), Call A Cab (25/1), Kagney (25/1), Lean Araig (50/1), Billy's Angel (66/1), Art Of Security (66/1), Carrig Cathal (66/1), King's War (100/1), Steer Clear (100/1), Brave Light (100/1), On The Mend (100/1)

Verdict

A PLUS TARD can put the experience of last months Gowran Park second to good use to get the better of a couple of chase debutants in this competitive beginners contest. Duc Des Genievres showed good form over hurdles and he can claim second on his debut over fences while third place can go to Grade 1-placed hurdler Carter McKay who is making his first start for this yard and also showed good form over the smaller obstacles.
  1. A Plus Tard
  2. Duc Des Genievres
