Verdict

Lots with chances but it could pay to side with BERNARDO O'REILLY who goes very well fresh and has slipped back to the same mark as when winning this 12 months ago. Fine 5 lb claimer Billy Loughnane rides for the first time too. Gisburn goes well in the mud and figures on an attractive mark so could emerge as the chief threat, although Blind Beggar has thrived since joining Mick Appleby and must enter calculations. Abolish is another weighted to have a say and completes the shortlist.

  1. BERNARDO O'REILLY
  2. GISBURN (IRE)
  3. BLIND BEGGAR (IRE)
