Forecasts

Boothill (5/2), Beauport (7/2), Panic Attack (6/1), Freedom To Dream (13/2), Ch'tibello (7/1), Jetaway Joey (10/1), Red Risk (10/1), Llandinabo Lad (12/1), Teescomponentsyess (14/1), Jepeck (33/1), Ballybegg (33/1), Haafapiece (50/1)

Verdict

The return to a shorter trip is a slight concern for BEAUPORT but his form is rock solid and he deserves to win a nice prize like this. David Pipe has a good record in this race in recent years so Panic Attack could be the one to give the selection most to think about ahead of Jepeck.

  1. BEAUPORT (IRE)
  2. PANIC ATTACK (IRE)
  3. JEPECK (IRE)
