Forecasts

No No Maestro (5/4), Animore (15/8), Methodtothemadness (3/1), Placedela Concorde (22/1), He's A Goer (66/1)

Verdict

A very weak contest in which the reliable NO NO MAESTRO looks hard to beat off just a 1 lb higher mark than when scoring at Uttoxeter last month. C&D scorer Methodtothemadness rates next best ahead of Animore who has the potential to play a part if transferring her fair hurdling form to this sphere.

  1. NO NO MAESTRO (IRE)
  2. METHODTOTHEMADNESS (IRE)
  3. ANIMORE
