Forecasts

Inappropriate (3/1), Paddy The Squire (10/3), Spirit Of Acklam (4/1), Austrian Theory (9/2), Tipsy Tiger (9/2), Expected Arrival (7/1), Shamran (16/1), Magnetic North (50/1)

Verdict

SPIRIT OF ACKLAM should be spot on for this after making a promising return from a break at Ayr recently and this unexposed 3-y-o can return to winning ways on ground which suits. Austrian Theory hasn't won for a while but he's run several good races in defeat this year and is second choice ahead of hat-trick seeking 3-y-o Inappropriate, who has yet to prove he handles the mud.

  1. SPIRIT OF ACKLAM
  2. AUSTRIAN THEORY (IRE)
  3. INAPPROPRIATE (IRE)
