Forecasts

Boombawn (4/5), Call Of The Wild (13/8), Creggan White Hare (10/1), Burrows Hall (12/1), Harry Du Berlais (18/1)

Verdict

This may well develop into a match between BOOMBAWN and Call of The Wild. The former shaped well in a couple of warm Newbury novice events last year and, on the back of a wind op, could be the way to go in receipt of 7 lb.

  1. BOOMBAWN (IRE)
  2. CALL OF THE WILD (IRE)
  3. CREGGAN WHITE HARE (IRE)
