Forecasts

Mont Segur (13/8), Star Academy (2/1), Dobryn (9/4), Rains Of Castamere (11/4), Grangeclare Glory (11/1), Floy Joy (11/1), Just The Man (12/1), Power Home (66/1), Eagle's First (150/1), Num Num (300/1), Jupiter Rising (400/1)

Verdict

This can go to STAR ACADEMY, who finished a place behind Anthony Honeyball's Mont Segur (beaten favourite at Wetherby on Monday) at Uttoxeter last month and can get off the mark at the third attempt over timber with further improvement on the cards. Rains of Castamere is much respected now sent over hurdles.

  1. STAR ACADEMY (IRE)
  2. MONT SEGUR (FR)
  3. RAINS OF CASTAMERE
