Forecasts

Oscars Leader (6/4), File Illico (15/8), Pride Of Lecale (2/1)

Verdict

A case can be made for all 3 in a trappy little heat. FILE ILLICO has reacted well to cheekpieces and is preferred to Oscars Leader given this comes very quick on the back of that one's tenacious success at Newcastle on Saturday.

  1. FILE ILLICO (FR)
  2. OSCARS LEADER (IRE)
  3. PRIDE OF LECALE
