Forecasts

Gaucher (6/4), Al Gasparo (3/1), Gale Mahler (9/2), Le Coq Hardi (13/2), Instant Tendance (12/1), Jungle Cove (20/1), Napper Tandy (25/1), Evening's Empire (33/1)

Verdict

GAUCHER impressed when making the most of a good opportunity with a strong galloping display at Punchstown last month and looks well worth keeping on side now upped in grade. Al Gasparo is a credible rival having shown a similar level of form to the selection, while Le Coq Hardi and Gale Mahler are others to note in an interesting event.

  1. GAUCHER
  2. AL GASPARO (FR)
  3. LE COQ HARDI (IRE)
