Forecasts

Birchdale (7/2), Panda Boy (4/1), Ilikedwayurthinkin (6/1), Jerandme (6/1), Whatsnotoknow (6/1), Upping The Anti (15/2), Mars Harper (8/1), Lieutenant Command (18/1), Kitty Galore (18/1)

Verdict

PANDA BOY was a good third in a competitive event here last time and, two months on, he makes the most appeal in a slightly lesser contest. Upping The Anti is open to improvement on handicap debut and Birchdale can't be ruled out.

  1. PANDA BOY (IRE)
  2. UPPING THE ANTI (IRE)
  3. BIRCHDALE (IRE)
