Forecasts

Hamartia (13/8), Aeros Luck (7/2), Cash The Cheque (7/2), Cullagh Pride (4/1), Rock On Pedro (6/1), Zettabyte (8/1), Banada Bridge (14/1), Hardwired (22/1), Black Barrel (80/1), Prince Quattro (200/1)

Verdict

ROCK ON PEDRO improved when runner-up in a handicap at Tramore and, with further progress entirely possible, he could be the answer. Next on the list is Hamartia, who appeared to find 21f too much of a test last time and she hit the crossbar over this C&D on her penultimate start. Cash The Cheque and Cullagh Pride are others with claims.

  1. ROCK ON PEDRO (IRE)
  2. HAMARTIA (IRE)
  3. CASH THE CHEQUE (IRE)
