Forecasts

Apache Outlaw (10/3), Mount Ruapehu (7/2), Collective Power (5/1), Inishmot Prince (11/2), Prisoner's Dilemma (7/1), Secret Magician (8/1), Theriverrunsdeep (11/1), Tai Sing Yeh (12/1), Musical Tribute (14/1), Macadam's Rock (16/1), Jered Maddox (18/1), Rumbled Again (28/1)

Verdict

A fiendishly competitive sprint with a host of recent winners on show including MOUNT RUAPEHU, who scored on all-weather/yard debut over C&D just over 7 weeks ago and looks capable of defying a 6 lb rise in the weights. Second choice is Prisoner's Dilemma, who was caught a touch further back than ideal over 7f here 3 weeks ago, with Apache Outlaw and Secret Magician another couple worth considering.

  1. MOUNT RUAPEHU (IRE)
  2. PRISONER'S DILEMMA
  3. APACHE OUTLAW (IRE)
