Forecasts

Druid's Altar (1/1), Dis Donc (11/4), Arvico Bleu (10/3), The Cathal Don (11/2), Eagle Moon (11/2), Fine Brunello (6/1), Galloway Du Lia (14/1), Leahman (20/1), Bonnie Kellie (40/1), Getting In Touch (50/1), All Shell (125/1)

Verdict

THE CATHAL DON has set a solid platform over hurdles (much better than result last time) and is the type to make a better chaser, so a chance is taken on him to make a winning chasing debut at the possible excuse of his stablemate Eagle Moon, who showed something to work on when debuting in this sphere last time. Dis Donc can't be discounted, either.

  1. THE CATHAL DON (IRE)
  2. EAGLE MOON (FR)
  3. DIS DONC (FR)
