Forecasts

Bagheera Ginge (1/1), Gold Link (11/8), Latino Fling (8/1), Glengeever (18/1)

Verdict

There could be more to come from low-mileage 7-y-o GOLD LINK, who looked a big threat to the progressive winner before making a hash of the second-last at Bangor. He wasn't knocked about following that blunder and is very appealing back up in trip off the same mark, returned to the scene of last month's comfortable breakthrough success. Bagheera Ginge has been knocking on the door and should get his head in front soon enough. He rates the main danger ahead of chase debutant Latino Fling.

  1. GOLD LINK (FR)
  2. BAGHEERA GINGE
  3. LATINO FLING (IRE)
