Forecasts

Laura Bullion (5/6), Global Freedom (5/2), Brexit Briefcase (9/2), Anthonysoprano (12/1), For Everyone (22/1), Doyouthinkso (33/1), Our Nancy (33/1), Charlie Bit Me (50/1)

Verdict

The Gordon Elliott-trained GLOBAL FREEDOM would not have to improve too much on his third of 16 at Roscommon earlier in the month to land the spoils in the opening contest. The three-year-old can hold off any potential challenge coming from the likes of Brexit Briefcase, sixth of 16 in the Roscommon race and the Canford Cliffs filly, Laura Bullion on debut for the Noel Meade yard.
