Forecasts

Mint Condition (7/2), Kateson (5/1), Hunters Call (5/1), Captain Tom Cat (13/2), Ballymoy (15/2), Navajo Pass (17/2), Look My Way (12/1), Glinger Flame (12/1), Eternally Yours (16/1), Irish Roe (28/1), Desaray Girl (50/1)

Verdict

A good handicap. MINT CONDITION had more in hand than the margin suggested at Bangor and is taken to defy the handicapper again and complete the hat-trick. Hunters Call boasts some strong form and is next on the list, ahead of Navajo Pass, who was far from disgraced in a strong event over C&D on his return.

  1. MINT CONDITION
  2. HUNTERS CALL (IRE)
  3. NAVAJO PASS
