Forecasts

Wal Buck's (2/1), Grand Voyage (7/2), Leitrim Chief (6/1), Limerick Leader (8/1), Sword Of Fate (17/2), Contre Ordre (17/2), Fenna's Loss (10/1), Claret Dabbler (12/1), Imperial Rule (18/1), Fourth Of July (18/1)

Verdict

WAL BUCK'S is very much built for chasing and ran with credit over hurdles last time, so he's potentially capable of making a winning start over the larger obstacles. Grand Voyage and Leitrim Chief are both solid alternatives.

  1. WAL BUCK'S (FR)
  2. GRAND VOYAGE (FR)
  3. LEITRIM CHIEF (IRE)
