Forecasts

Commandant (10/3), Rock Road (7/2), Pack Your Bags (11/2), Stoughan Cross (6/1), Capture The Drama (7/1), Winter Magic (8/1), De Benno (8/1), Effernock Lad (10/1), Shrewdoperator (10/1), The Irregular (14/1)

Verdict

The Joseph O'Brien-trained COMMANDANT was quickly off the mark at just the second time of asking for connections over the larger obstacles when landing a 13-runner Wexford beginners contest last month. The Presenting gelding can set a high standard in this contest over impressive Kilbeggan winner, Stoughan Cross and the J P McManus-owned Pack Your Bags, who attempts a hat-trick of chase wins.
  1. Commandant
  2. Stoughan Cross
  3. Pack Your Bags
