Forecasts

Black Bamboo (85/40), Winning Smut (7/2), Zeeband (6/1), The Very Man (15/2), Futurum Regem (8/1), Senecia (9/1), Donacheady Gale (9/1), Ceroc (14/1), Summer Tide (20/1), Mt Leinster (20/1), Streets Of Doyen (25/1), Cash Back (25/1), Story Rory (40/1)

Verdict

BLACK BAMBOO was unlucky not to finish closer when third in a big-field event over 19.3f at Punchestown in May, and he is appealing back in handicap company over a more suitable trip. Senecia, who also returns to handicap company having contested a Grade 3 at Tipperary last time, is second choice ahead of Donacheady Gale and Zeeband.

  1. BLACK BAMBOO (IRE)
  2. SENECIA (IRE)
  3. DONACHEADY GALE (IRE)
