Forecasts

Feel The Pinch (4/1), Tarahumara (4/1), Holerday Ridge (9/2), You Say Nothing (11/2), Henry Box Brown (6/1), Fortunate Fred (7/1), Billingsley (15/2), Madiba Passion (15/2), Shaw's Cross (10/1), Lermoos Legend (14/1), Chestnut Pete (18/1), Tiger Voice (50/1)

Verdict

FEEL THE PINCH may well have won but for being bumped and his pilot dislodged at Bangor last month and he makes plenty of appeal off the same mark here. You Say Nothing was far from disgraced in a stronger event last time and is much respected, whilst Madiba Passion can also make his presence felt.

  1. FEEL THE PINCH
  2. YOU SAY NOTHING (IRE)
  3. MADIBA PASSION (FR)
