Forecasts

Support Act (2/1), Viva Valentina (9/4), Molly's Third Man (3/1), Il Va De Soi (3/1), Booster Bob (7/2), Ballywhatsit (28/1), Telemetry (100/1), Magical Arthur (125/1), Stonegate (125/1)

Verdict

An interesting bumper with the narrow vote in favour of SUPPORT ACT. He shaped with plenty of promise when runner-up on Rules debut at Kempton 6 weeks ago, and with progress anticipated, he can go one place better. Booster Bob, who opened his account at the first attempt at Ayr, is feared along with Il Va de Soi, whilst Dan Skelton's newcomer Molly's Third Man demands a market check for clues.

  1. SUPPORT ACT (IRE)
  2. BOOSTER BOB (IRE)
  3. IL VA DE SOI (FR)
