Forecasts

Allardyce (2/1), Everlastingpromise (2/1), Grand Partner (5/1), My Manekineko (13/2), Out Of The Loop (7/1), Dasmyhoss (12/1), Effernock Lad (12/1)

Verdict

Everlastingpromise is well worth another try here having perhaps failed to last out from the front over further at Navan last time. He gets on well with Donal McInerney and can bounce back. Preference though is for MY MANEKINEKO, who is due a change of fortune after a few near misses over fences this winter. He's rated 6lb lower than when running a good second at Newcastle over further in November and is more at home over this trip. Allardyce is in form and shortlisted while former C&D winner Effernock Lad isn't ruled out.
  1. My Manekineko
  2. Everlastingpromise
  3. Allardyce
