Forecasts

The Mediator (13/8), Sign From Above (11/4), Napper Tandy (3/1), Extrapolation (4/1), Fair Damsel (16/1), En Or (22/1), Turf Range (25/1), Colonel Bellew (28/1), Smallcashprize (33/1), Barry Lyndon (40/1), Rockview Roman (50/1), Toor Moon (50/1), Some Bro (66/1), I See You Now (66/1), Kilkee Royal (80/1), Valiant Star (125/1), Tomannie (200/1), Kalsman (250/1), Knock Flyer (250/1)

Verdict

A repeat of the form THE MEDIATOR showed when runner-up at Down Royal 3 weeks ago might be good enough to see him go one better here. Sign From Above and Napper Tandy should be involved in the battle for minor honours along with bumper winner Extrapolation.

  1. THE MEDIATOR (IRE)
  2. SIGN FROM ABOVE (IRE)
  3. NAPPER TANDY
