Forecasts

Nikini (4/7), Spick And Span (4/1), Estepona Sun (15/2), Freddie Robdal (17/2), Virtual Oscar (10/1), Qatar Spirit (33/1), Harel Du Marais (40/1), Ballymist (40/1), Applejack Poet (50/1), No Mor Isolation (100/1), Silent Flight (125/1), Saddle In The Rain (150/1), Millers Road (200/1), Vairue (250/1)

Verdict

Bumper winner NIKINI looks a cracking jumps prospect and this could be a good starting point for her over hurdles. Spick And Span would have gone close at Ballinrobe had she stood up and is an obvious contender. Freddie Robdal is fitted with a tongue tie and should bounce back to form.
