Forecasts

Punters Poet (15/8), Antigua Son (11/4), Avondale Smiles (11/4), Good World (3/1), Rock Of Tuskar (3/1), Edmond Dantes (11/2), Ricky Langford (15/2), Getgo (8/1), Howyated (14/1), Trenchtown Rock (16/1), Rebelle Chaud (20/1), Nomadic Star (20/1), Urban Boom (25/1), Grinn (25/1), Larry O (25/1)

Verdict

EDMOND DANTES is with a shrewd outfit and switches to handicaps on a mark that looks very appealing based on the level he's achieved on the Flat, so he's a confident choice to land a race that's distinctly lacking in depth. Recent Clonmel scorer Punters Poet, could lay down a stern challenge if he turns up in the same mood.

  1. EDMOND DANTES (IRE)
  2. PUNTERS POET (IRE)
  3. ANTIGUA SON (IRE)
