Forecasts

Jumping Cats (11/8), Ballydoyle (10/3), Sixties Secret (6/1), Alberic (7/1), Queen Among Kings (10/1), Clongowes (11/1), Present Destiny (11/1), Andapa (14/1), Ermyn's Emerald (16/1), Kilganer Queen (20/1), Invicta Lake (40/1), O'Rahilly (50/1), Hunter's Dawn (50/1), Clonusker Lady (50/1), Jumping Jack (50/1)

Verdict

BALLYDOYLE is well handicapped based on his Flat exploits and shaped as if a step up in trip would suit when fourth over 2m at this course last time. He's an obvious choice to prevail, with his stablemate Jumping Cats arguably the main danger, although Sixties Secret can't be ruled out.

  1. BALLYDOYLE (GER)
  2. JUMPING CATS
  3. SIXTIES SECRET
