Forecasts

Seskin Flyer (1/1), The Ballyboys (7/2), Fairymount Boy (4/1), Instant Smile (10/1), Customer (10/1), Mindsmadeup (12/1), Oscar Lantern (12/1), Golanbrook (33/1), Enduring Love (33/1), Lettermacaward (33/1), Marakoush (40/1)

Verdict

FAIRYMOUNT BOY should be spot on for this following solid third of 11 at Thurles on Saturday with the yard boasting a 56% win and place strike rate at this meeting since 2015. Ray Hackett's The Ballyboys needs to improve his fencing but has plenty of ability to get competitive and can hit the frame, along with Seskin Flyer, while the J J Walsh-trained Instant Smile can go well at a price.
  1. Fairymount Boy
