Forecasts

Proschema (7/2), Captain Tom Cat (7/2), Java Point (9/2), Beauport (11/2), Here Comes McCoy (13/2), Winds Of Fire (9/1), Quinta Do Mar (9/1), Global Society (14/1), Pileon (22/1), Back On The Lash (25/1), Kilbricken Storm (40/1), Dell Oro (66/1), Byron Flyer (80/1)

Verdict

A useful contest. JAVA POINT has progressed nicely of late and gets a narrow vote. Dan Skelton's Proschema is of some interest now stepping up to a trip which could suit given the stamina he's shown on the Flat. Course-winner Captain Tom Cat has the potential for better again back from a break and also makes the shortlist.

  1. JAVA POINT (IRE)
  2. PROSCHEMA (IRE)
  3. CAPTAIN TOM CAT (IRE)
