Forecasts

Bretney (3/1), Kestrel Valley (13/2), Gats And Co (8/1), Timely Gift (17/2), Wind Tor (9/1), Ballybreen (9/1), Le Tueur (10/1), Hang Tough (11/1), Son Of Oz (12/1), Nessfield Blue (14/1), High Counsel (16/1)

Verdict

Hard to place maximum faith in any of these modest staying chasers but BALLYBREEN was still there pitching when falling at Ffos Las when last seen and down in class, he could be the answer. High Counsel evidently retains plenty of enthusiasm despite his advancing years and is a threat, along with Bretney for a bang in-form yard.

  1. BALLYBREEN (IRE)
  2. HIGH COUNSEL (IRE)
  3. BRETNEY (IRE)
