Forecasts

Amhran Na Bhfiann (1/4), Paloma Blue (5/1), Boola Boola (6/1), Quamino (20/1), Bridge Native (25/1), Tham Luang (33/1), Too Falutin (50/1), Alterno (50/1), Rocky Shores (80/1), Kind Of Loving (80/1), Lug (80/1), It's All Gucci (125/1), Freds Honour (200/1), Twentybore (250/1), Fahee (250/1)

Verdict

Derby-third AMHRAN NA BHFIANN looks very hard to beat on his seasonal return now back at 1m4f and he can open his account before tackling better company once more. Henry de Bromhead's very smart chaser Paloma Blue could be the one to chase home Aidan O'Brien's colt on his belated debut in this sphere, with another jumps winner Bridge Native appealing as the pick of the remainder.

  1. AMHRAN NA BHFIANN (IRE)
  2. PALOMA BLUE (IRE)
  3. BRIDGE NATIVE (IRE)
