Forecasts

Ecclesiastical (4/1), Pretty Boy Floyd (4/1), Big Gossey (9/2), Indigo Balance (7/1), Grammata (8/1), Summer Sands (9/1), That's Mad (10/1), Downforce (11/1), Flaming Moon (11/1), Gobi Desert (12/1), Texas Rock (28/1), Blue Umbrella (100/1)

Verdict

PRETTY BOY FLOYD is proven both at this venue and on the likely testing ground, so he can continue the progression he made last year here. Ecclesiastical looks to be the main danger after a series of solid efforts at Dundalk. Big Gossey has also been performingly admirably on the all-weather and can play a part.

  1. PRETTY BOY FLOYD (IRE)
  2. ECCLESIASTICAL
  3. BIG GOSSEY (IRE)
