Forecasts

Prince Of Air (3/1), Pont Audemer (7/2), Golden Sandbanks (9/2), McGrath From Clune (11/2), Lake Chad (13/2), Druim Samhraidh (7/1), Cracklinrose (9/1), Ricky Langford (10/1), Bite That (10/1), Marvel Fan (12/1)

Verdict

In a race in which several have lots to prove, PRINCE OF AIR very much rates the percentage play on the back of a career-best victory. Golden Sandbanks can give it another good go returned to the larger obstacles, with Druim Samhraidh another to consider despite coming to chasing very late in the day.
