Forecasts

Major Barry (3/1), Disco Dancer (7/2), Mary's Pride (11/2), Spy (8/1), The Niffler (9/1), Flidais (10/1), Dark Note (10/1), Only One Plan (11/1), Makfils (12/1), Grange Walk (12/1), Only A Dollar (16/1), Hey Johnny (25/1), Marvel Fan (28/1)

Verdict

MAJOR BARRY caught the eye when third on his Killarney handicap debut last month and can build on that promise now. Flidais was only pushed out to score at Ballinrobe a couple of weeks ago and is second choice ahead of Gordon Elliott handicap newcomer Disco Dancer.

  1. MAJOR BARRY (IRE)
  2. FLIDAIS (IRE)
  3. DISCO DANCER (IRE)
