Forecasts

Ed The Red (9/4), Dark Spark (5/2), Malbas (6/1), Estepona Sun (7/1), Shamiyan (8/1), Blackberry Jack (9/1), Ben Thomson (14/1), Alfieri (16/1), Winnie Woodnutt (40/1), Miss Frontiere (50/1), Timourid (50/1), Rudisha (50/1), Fryerns (100/1), I Can't Remember (150/1), Bushtucker Trial (200/1), Miss Ohio (250/1), Good Bye Milan (400/1)

Verdict

Bumper winner DARK SPARK was strong in the betting and duly left his hurdling debut form behind at Cork 18 days ago, just unlucky to bump into a promising newcomer, and he's taken to go one better with more improvement likely. Ed The Red ran to a fair level when runner-up on his Rules debut over C&D and is respected, while Estepona Sun should be in the mix again.
