Forecasts

Ambitious Fellow (11/10), Plains Indian (9/4), Bravo Team (5/2), Desert Friend (9/2), Crosshouse Boy (25/1)

Verdict

AMBITIOUS FELLOW belied odds of 40/1 when striking on return at Punchestown in April, and duly proved that that was no flash in the pan when second at Wexford next time. This step back up in trip looks a good move and he shades preference ahead of Plains Indian, who was a cosy winner at Ballinrobe a fortnight ago. Bravo Team is also respected, but Desert Friend has more on his plate than when winning at Listowel and Crosshouse Boy looks up against it on these terms.
