Forecasts

Roxboro Road (6/4), Three Kings (5/2), Kilbarry Calling (11/2), Mad Carew (6/1), Big Bad Brian (7/1), Tinnehinch (12/1), Top Of The Charts (20/1), Ange D'Or Javilex (28/1), Robbies Magic (33/1), Mossy White (50/1), Castlehume Gold (50/1)

Verdict

The Gordon Elliott-trained THREE KINGS has made massive strides improving in just two starts since joining the yard and can land the closing race here on return to the larger obstacles. Clonmel fourth Kilbarry Calling could emerge as the biggest danger with the J P McManus-owned Roxboro Road capable of a big run in first-time cheekpieces, while Mad Carew can go well at a price.
  1. Three Kings
