Forecasts

Happy Jacky (7/4), Ashton Court (4/1), Slainte And Thanks (6/1), Multiviz (10/1), Bellgrove (14/1), Loch Luatha (14/1), Alice Johnston (16/1), Marmalade N Toast (16/1), Ringo Kid (20/1), Moyode Lady (20/1), Lleyton (20/1), Crafty Codger (25/1), Island Villa (25/1), Allora Yeats (40/1)

Verdict

Probably best sticking to those horses with the best recent form and preference goes to MULTIVIZ who won a similar race to this at Tramore last time out and the manner of that victory suggests he can score again even at the revised weights especially if the ground remains on the fast side. Another recent winner is Happy Jacky and although he is untried on the expected fast ground, holds every chance if able to carry his welter burden of 12st4lb. Ashton Court improved for the change of scenery when running well finishing 2nd of 13 in a maiden hurdle at Bellewstown last time out. He finished strongly that day and could go one better here.
  1. Multiviz
  2. Happy Jacky
  3. Ashton Court
