Forecasts

Blue Shark (5/2), Ma Belle Noire (4/1), Mr Jack (9/2), Walkinthewoods (11/2), My Ticketyboo (8/1), Kenny George (11/1), Optimistic Belief (11/1), Ya Know Yaseff (33/1), Eaton Lady (33/1), Kay's Light (50/1), Kentford Swansong (80/1)

Verdict

BLUE SHARK has looked a different proposition on his last 2 outings and is capable of defying an 8 lb rise to complete the hat-trick. The likes of Mr Jack and Ma Belle Noire are also of significant interest, with Walkinthewoods and Optimistic Belief also hard to rule out in a competitive event.

  1. BLUE SHARK (IRE)
