Forecasts

Schmilsson (11/10), Reach For The Moon (2/1), Benefit Ben (7/1), Raffles Wonder (10/1), Heart Above (10/1), Badlands Boy (20/1), Not Now Tayto (33/1), Fixed Wing (80/1), That One (150/1), Golden Swift (400/1)

Verdict

A very shallow contest in which SCHMILSSON is preferred to interesting hurdles newcomer Reach For The Moon, Olly Murphy's gelding clearly inferior to his market rival on the Flat but having improved with each run over hurdles so far and perhaps possessing a more solid profile to one who clearly hasn't been the easiest to get to the track. Badlands Boy is a very modest pick for third.

  1. SCHMILSSON
  2. REACH FOR THE MOON
  3. BADLANDS BOY (IRE)
