Forecasts

Coolagh Park (4/6), Golazo (2/1), Flying Crystal (8/1), Arbor Vitae (20/1), Zola (25/1), One For Lexi (25/1), Jerry Russell (33/1), Still Haventaclue (33/1)

Verdict

€100,000 five-year-old gelding Coolagh Park can give the Willie Mullins-trained GOLAZO plenty to think about in the closing race of the day. The selection was not disgraced on debut finishing third of nine at Punchestown in October and wouldn't have to improve much on that performance to play a role here. Flying Crystal looks the best of what is an ordinary bunch of what remains.
