Forecasts

Moonshine Bay (11/8), Castlebrook (11/4), The Conditional (7/2), Mine Now (4/1), Polar Present (7/1), Last Man Standing (8/1), Aherlow (10/1), Westland Row (14/1), Eshtiaal (50/1), Turndownthevolume (100/1)

Verdict

The Oscar gelding, CASTLEBROOK, may well lead all the way here and have a couple of the field in trouble some way out on chasing debut under jockey Davy Russell. The five-year-old can see off the challenge of fellow chasing debutante, Westland Row, while Moonshine Bay is expected to come on for his run at Fairyhouse earlier this month.
  1. Castlebrook
