Forecasts

Coolongolook (6/4), Mister Capitano (3/1), Walking In Memphis (7/2), Xinbama (5/1), Paul Patterson (10/1), Perfect In Pink (14/1), Grove Hill (20/1), Empirion (20/1), Blankiedoodie (33/1), Dalitari (66/1)

Verdict

Several of these will be better suited to handicaps once qualified for a mark. This could lie between Mister Capitano who shaped like this longer trip will suit at Cork last time and COOLONGOLOOK. The latter was a decent handicapper on the flat for Luca Cumani and carries significant potential moving forward over hurdles so is just preferred.
  1. Coolongolook
  2. Mister Capitano
