Forecasts

Royal Romeo (11/10), High City Roller (5/2), Bold Approach (9/2), No Trouble (10/1), Aghinagh (12/1), Steel Cable (14/1), Sofias Castle (16/1), Fraternity (18/1), Onlyamatteroftime (33/1), Complete Fantasy (50/1), The Alpha Man (66/1), Thecornerhouse (200/1), Two Meter Rule (200/1), Oneforpaddy (200/1), Cosmology (200/1)

Verdict

ROYAL ROMEO was fair on the Flat and showed enough when runner-up in a novice at Cork on hurdling debut to think that he can take this similar event. Aghinah has achieved a similar level of form but is slightly more exposed, so the main threat might actually come from hurdling newcomer High City Roller.

  1. ROYAL ROMEO (IRE)
  2. HIGH CITY ROLLER (IRE)
  3. AGHINAGH (IRE)
