Forecasts

Arthurian Fame (10/3), Ciao (9/2), Take A Turn (5/1), The Mouse Doctor (8/1), Agent Zigzag (8/1), Miss Snossyboots (8/1), Kerosin (14/1), Le Vagabond (14/1), Bit Of Banter (16/1), Forest View (16/1), Torcello (25/1), Ashqar (40/1)

Verdict

Arthurian Fame scored at Naas on reappearance with something in hand, but a hefty 10lb hike does ask a tough question now re-opposing some of the beaten horses. He's respected but the runner-up CIAO ran into trouble that day and, better off now, can give Megan Nicholls a memorable first trip to Ireland by reversing the placings. This is an open heat for the Lady Riders and Miss Snossyboots, Le Vagabond, Take A Turn and The Mouse Doctor can all be entertained as players.
  1. Ciao
  2. Miss Snossyboots
  3. Arthurian Fame
