Forecasts

Morosini (6/4), Top Moon (7/1), Hannon (7/1), Gardens of Babylon (8/1), Lethal Steps (9/1), Razoul (14/1), Zoffalee (14/1), Nibiru (16/1), Blackhillsofdakota (20/1), Ashqar (25/1), Rocky Shores (25/1), Flindt (25/1), Coral Blue (25/1), Rip Rocks Paddy Ok (33/1)

Verdict

The Gordon Elliott-trained, LETHAL STEPS looked to have plenty in hand when landing a competitive contest at the Galway festival finishing 2L ahead of Morosini. The pair appear capable of running big races again at the expense of the Joseph O'Brien/J P McManus pair, Gardens Of Babylon and Top Moon. the Seamus Fahey-trained, Coral Blue can go well at a price.
  1. Lethal Steps
  2. Morosini
  3. Top Moon
