Forecasts

Captain Cobajay (9/4), Dontdooddson (10/3), Indian Music (11/2), Father Jed (6/1), My Manekineko (7/1), Comehere Hi (10/1), Pateen (10/1), Fruits Of Glory (12/1)

Verdict

The improving CAPTAIN COBAJAY comes here on the back of a number of fine efforts over the larger obstacles and will look to add to his 2L win at Wexford earlier this month. Beaten since the gelding can get back to winning ways here with the tough and genuine, Father Jed emerging as the biggest danger. Recent Galway second over hurdles, My Manekineko and Indian Music, a winner at Tramore last month can battle for remaining prize money.
  1. Captain Cobajay
  2. Father Jed
  3. My Manekineko
