Forecasts

Mordor (2/5), Leitzel (3/1), Bobbysingindablues (11/1), Game Eagle (16/1), Serotonin (18/1), Strandhill Bay (40/1), Psycho Sid (50/1), Shashado (80/1), Tiny Angel (100/1), Cois Fharraige (100/1), Rocket Ruby (100/1), Cowper Hall (100/1)

Verdict

MORDOR looks to have finished improving but the pick of his exploits over hurdles gives him sound claims here, so he's narrowly preferred to Leitzel in a race lacking depth. Game Eagle may emerge best of the remainder.

  1. MORDOR (FR)
  2. LEITZEL
  3. GAME EAGLE (IRE)
