Forecasts

Zero Ten (5/4), The Big Dog (11/4), Voix Des Tiep (4/1), Whatsafellatodo (10/1), The Holy One (12/1), Presented Well (33/1), Chavi Artist (33/1), Mister Eddman (40/1), Macgiloney (50/1), Makka Pakka (66/1), Montagne D'Argent (100/1), Gigiplan Two Seven (100/1), Golan Warrior (200/1)

Verdict

ZERO TEN keeps improving and although his winning run was ended at Fairyhouse, he remains on an upward curve. he gets the vote ahead of Voix des Tiep who won well last time, although was beaten by The Big Dog at Gowran on his penultimate start, and if he can shake off a subsequent flop, he comes firmly into the reckoning.
  1. Zero Ten
  2. Voix Des Tiep
  3. The Big Dog
