Forecasts

A Piece Of Heaven (7/2), Belloccio (4/1), Fox Journey (4/1), Alsakib (11/2), Intinso (10/1), My Mate Mozzie (12/1), Naqeeb (18/1), Maxi King (18/1), Party Central (20/1), Tyson Fury (28/1), Gentleman Joe (33/1), Lmay (40/1), Kihavah (50/1), Beamish (50/1), Drawn To Dream (66/1), Lucander (80/1)

Verdict

BELLOCCIO needs to prove his effectiveness on ground faster than good but he comes here operating from a very appealing mark and, having run out a most impressive winner on his yard/hurdles debut at Punchestown in May, he could be worth chancing with his top NH stable having landed this prize 12 months ago. A Piece of Heaven, an easy winner at Leopardstown, is feared on debut for Joseph O'Brien. Fox Journey, Naqeeb and Party Central complete the shortlist.
