Forecasts

Bal De Rio (5/4), Starman (4/1), Rotten Row (4/1), Kashi (15/2), Coole Arcade (8/1), Natural Breeze (12/1), Battle Of Benburb (14/1), Dark Voyager (66/1)

Verdict

STARMAN wasn't disgraced in the face of a stiff task at Navan recently and could be the way to go back in a claimer. Bal de Rio was just ahead of him in a similar event at Bellewstown last month and can go well again. Rotten Row is another to consider.

  1. STARMAN (FR)
  2. BAL DE RIO (FR)
  3. ROTTEN ROW (IRE)
