Forecasts

Read To Return (11/8), Fill The Tank (5/2), Hand Over Fist (3/1), Ideal Du Tabert (10/3), Good World (13/2), Benkei (8/1), Outside The Door (8/1), Jay Jay Zee (8/1), Rockon Henry (16/1), Pat Coyne (16/1), Military Hill (25/1)

Verdict

This step up in trip could be just the ticket for READ TO RETURN, who was runner-up in a maiden chase at Tramore in April and is on a fair-looking mark now making his handicap debut back over hurdles. Hand Over Fist and Fill The Tank, first and second respectively here last month, should both be involved in the finish once again, while Good World is also shortlisted.

  1. READ TO RETURN (IRE)
  2. HAND OVER FIST (FR)
  3. FILL THE TANK (IRE)
