Forecasts

Kilkishen (9/4), Captain Cattistock (4/1), Know The Score (9/2), Ennistown (11/2), Tanit River (6/1), Keltus (14/1), Optimised (18/1), Excitable Island (25/1), Navanman (33/1), Dr Des (40/1), Ange Des Malberaux (66/1), Sam Red (100/1), Talk Of The South (100/1), Itstimeforapint (100/1), Bob Ford (125/1), Rock On Carlos (150/1)

Verdict

For all that he failed to put his best foot forward at Doncaster last time, CAPTAIN CATTISTOCK looks the way to go. He is taking a step into the unknown trip-wise, but the same is true for many of these and his near miss over 27.7f at Fontwell last season suggests that stamina won't be an issue. Kilkishen has form over marathon trips (fourth in the 2019 Eider) and is next best ahead of Ennistown.

  1. CAPTAIN CATTISTOCK
  2. KILKISHEN (IRE)
