Forecasts

Verdict

Gavin Cromwell's SAFFREDI wasn't seen to anything like best effect when fourth at Down Royal last time and can prove his current mark to be a lenient one by opening his account here. Fairyhouse runner-up Alex Belardo should proved suited by this step up in distance so rates the main danger, although Swiss Army Officer, Sneddy Eddie and Gosford also enter calculations.

  1. SAFFREDI
  2. ALEX BELARDO (IRE)
  3. SWISS ARMY OFFICER (IRE)
