Forecasts

Railway Hurricane (9/4), Act Of God (3/1), Effernock Fizz (10/3), Francois (11/2), Wouldn't You Agree (8/1), Good As Hell (11/1), Winding River (16/1), Leish Oscars Son (50/1), Go Boy (50/1), Woodfield Symphony (100/1)

Verdict

ACT OF GOD acquitted himself quite well in a couple of good maiden chases last month and could be the way to go in what looks a slightly easier race this time. Gavin Cromwell's Railway Hurricane is feared most ahead of Effernock Fizz.

  1. ACT OF GOD
  2. RAILWAY HURRICANE (IRE)
  3. EFFERNOCK FIZZ (IRE)
