Forecasts

Verdict

The vote goes to FLY DE MEGAUDAIS, who returned to form back from a break at Tipperary three weeks ago and he has every chance off the same mark, which is just 1 lb higher compared to when winning at that same course last summer. The Eye of Tulla has yet to get his head in front but arrives here in good heart and should give another good account, while fellow maiden Hard Rain is pretty consistent on the whole and he looks set for another prominent role.

  1. FLY DE MEGAUDAIS (FR)
  2. THE EYE OF TULLA (IRE)
  3. HARD RAIN (IRE)
