Forecasts

Stoke The Fire (10/3), Grappa Nonino (9/2), Palamon (6/1), Scaramanga (9/1), How About No (11/1), Golden Temple (12/1), The Truant (14/1), Rain (14/1), St Faz (14/1), Barrier (16/1), Walking On Glass (20/1), Bold Approach (20/1), Ted Hastings (22/1), Sirius (33/1), Chemdawg (50/1), Longclaw (66/1), Whiskey Sour (66/1)

Verdict

Dermot Weld won back to back runnings of this a couple of years ago and perhaps GRAPPA NONINO can deny the Willie Mullins contingent, headed by Stoke The Fire and Scaramanga. How About No and Bold Approach also make the shortlist.

  1. GRAPPA NONINO (IRE)
  2. STOKE THE FIRE (IRE)
  3. SCARAMANGA (IRE)
