Forecasts

Fort Vega (11/4), Indigo Five (3/1), Akecheta (9/1), Evening Blossom (9/1), Apercu (10/1), Goldrush Kid (10/1), Presence (11/1), Sea Eagle (12/1), Titanium (20/1), No More Porter (22/1), Letherfly (22/1), Casanova (33/1), Ob La Di (33/1), Catena Zapata (50/1), Solomon (66/1)

Verdict

The vote goes to FORT VEGA, who was limited to just one appearance in 2024 but he shaped well on return in the Irish Lincoln recently and is entitled to come on for that run. The lightly-raced 5-y-o appears to be on a good mark and the booking of Colin Keane adds to his appeal. No More Porter failed to fire in the Irish Lincoln but he will be a threat if on-song this time, while Apercu, a narrow winner here when last seen in October, and recent C&D scorer Goldrush Kid are others to consider.

  1. FORT VEGA (FR)
  2. NO MORE PORTER (IRE)
  3. APERCU (IRE)
