Forecasts

Ballyhome (7/2), Forecast (7/2), The Sweeney (4/1), Envoye Special (9/2), No Hidden Charges (15/2), Henrietta Bell (8/1), Notnow Seamus (18/1), I'm Here (25/1)

Verdict

A tricky little contest. Good ground is probably essential for a few of these but THE SWEENEY has form with some cut, and has always looked the type to make a chaser. If he can put in a clear round on his chasing debut, he should be thereabouts. Forecast might be rejuvenated by a change of scenery and ran respectably on his only chase start to date, and Ballyhome might do better for not racing in heavy ground, which he had for both of his disappointing chase starts. Envoye Special needs a bit more but that's not impossible.
  1. The Sweeney
  2. Forecast
  3. Ballyhome
