Forecasts

Indiana Jones (2/1), Shakeytry (3/1), Railway Hurricane (7/2), Oscer Romero (15/2), Kildorrery (10/1), Benefit Run (16/1), Jack Hackett (16/1)

Verdict

SHAKEYTRY hinted at a revival when fourth at Thurles last month and is weighted to go close eased 1 lb now so gets the nod. Indiana Jones is feared most now he reverts in trip with Benefit Run appealing as the pick of the rest for place purposes.

  1. SHAKEYTRY (IRE)
  2. INDIANA JONES (FR)
  3. BENEFIT RUN (IRE)
