Forecasts

Roger Rarebit (7/2), Azof Des Mottes (9/2), Shutthegate (9/2), Loughermore (7/1), Beat Box (8/1), Silk Or Scarlet (8/1), Uisce Ur (14/1), Trac (16/1), Frankie Baby (16/1), The Electrician (20/1), Yorgunnabeamunky (20/1), Post Chaise (20/1), Motahassen (25/1), Luckello (28/1), African Glory (28/1), Leading Man (33/1), Kinerton Hill (50/1)

Verdict

SHUTTHEGATE is going through a good spell at present and the prospect of a well-run race kept to this trip will help his cause. Beat Box and Azof des Mottes are obvious dangers, while Roger Rarebit is the potential improver now handicapping.

  1. SHUTTHEGATE (IRE)
  2. BEAT BOX (FR)
  3. AZOF DES MOTTES (FR)
