Forecasts

On The Wild Side (5/6), Sophie Fatale (2/1), Blazing Port (4/1), Rockmann (18/1), Burn Some Dust (25/1), Seven Eye Bridge (33/1), Abington Park (40/1), Aquitaine Boy (50/1), Conundrum (100/1), Wooska (100/1), Silken Moonlight (300/1), Mr Jv (300/1), Breaking The Ice (300/1)

Verdict

Dr Richard Newland's has his string in fine form so the progressive ON THE WILD SIDE is taken to defy a 7 lb penalty and follow up his C&D win earlier in the month. Sophie Fatale has the form to play a big part but a nine-month absence tempers enthusiasm, while hurdling-newcomer Blazing Port is not taken lightly either judged on her fairly useful form in bumpers.

  1. ON THE WILD SIDE (IRE)
