Forecasts

Verdict

PILBARA found a jolt of improvement over hurdles upon returning to action during the summer and ran his best race to date over fences when runner-up in a Listowel novice (22f) 2 weeks ago. His opening mark in this sphere looks exploitable and he can continue the good work. Bridge Native and Thecraicisninety head up the dangers, along with Diamond Turf.

  1. PILBARA
  2. BRIDGE NATIVE (IRE)
