Forecasts

Smooth Player (8/11), Magnetic Pulse (4/1), Rathnaleen Kal (13/2), Ocojohn (12/1), Hermin D'oudairies (14/1), Cocoplum (16/1), Dermateen (33/1)

Verdict

Those with form don't set the bar all that high, so the percentage call is to side with newcomer SMOOTH PLAYER, who represents a top yard and is a half-brother to a winner in this discipline. Magnetic Pulse and Rathnaleen Kal should improve from their debuts, so they look the selection's strongest opponents.

  1. SMOOTH PLAYER (IRE)
  2. MAGNETIC PULSE (IRE)
  3. RATHNALEEN KAL (IRE)
