Forecasts

Duffle Coat (6/5), Bardenstown Lad (10/3), Another Choice (5/1), Walk Away (13/2), Ringdufferin (7/1), La Vega Moon (28/1), Welsh Saint (50/1), Falvio (125/1)

Verdict

This represents a good opportunity for DUFFLE COAT to deservedly open his account over fences. The 7-y-o has found just one too good on each of his three starts in this sphere and this step back up in trip looks a good move. That remark also applies to Bardenstown Lad, who was behind the selection at Down Royal recently and he could be the one for the forecast. Walk Away is third choice ahead of Duffle Coat's stablemate Ringdufferin.

  1. DUFFLE COAT (IRE)
  2. BARDENSTOWN LAD
  3. WALK AWAY (IRE)
