Forecasts

Galon De Vauzelle (11/4), Arrycan (3/1), Pairc Na Ngael (7/2), Old Town Garde (7/2), Kitty Galore (6/1), Millen To One (8/1), Na Caith Tobac (8/1), Optical Confusion (14/1)

Verdict

ARRYCAN is more reliable than most at this level (hit the frame all seven starts this year) so Liam Cusack's charge rates the most solid option with a talented 7 lb claimer taking over in the plate. Pairc Na Ngael is clearly on good terms with himself so he heads up the dangers having doubled his career tally at Kilbeggan 8 weeks ago, with Kitty Galore completing the shortlist.

  1. ARRYCAN (IRE)
  2. PAIRC NA NGAEL (IRE)
  3. KITTY GALORE (IRE)
