Forecasts

Horantzau D'airy (4/9), Aime Desjy (9/2), Firm Footings (5/1), Byker (14/1), Bois De Clamart (66/1), Deployed (80/1)

Verdict

HORANTZAU D'AIRY is the form pick and arrives on the back of an excellent second at Listowel a month ago, so he's a confident choice to get back to winning ways at the likely expense of stablemate Aime Desjy. Firm Footings is another one to consider.

  1. HORANTZAU D'AIRY (FR)
  2. AIME DESJY (FR)
  3. FIRM FOOTINGS (IRE)
