Forecasts

Coillte Aris (3/1), Always Enchanting (9/2), Be My Hero (9/2), Robindevidastar (11/2), A Nod To Getaway (11/2), Chosen Shant (6/1), Must Be Dreaming (7/1), Beeverstown Place (17/2), On The Banks (20/1), Aegirine (20/1), Johnny Cakes (33/1), Take A Punt (80/1), Better Choice (80/1)

Verdict

Lots with chances but Gordon Elliott's consistent BE MY HERO is taken to gain a deserved breakthrough success after a run of good efforts. Chosen Shant is rated next best on the back of a good Naas third, with Always Enchanting weighted to have a say too.

  1. BE MY HERO (IRE)
  2. CHOSEN SHANT (IRE)
  3. ALWAYS ENCHANTING
