Forecasts

Imperial Elixir (11/10), Buy Mistake (15/8), Fresh New Dawn (7/2), Absolutely Dylan (12/1), Sammylou (16/1), Theatre Legend (25/1), Siannes Star (25/1), Animated Hero (33/1), Bit Of A Geordie (33/1), Lawtop Legend (66/1)

Verdict

Buy Mistake again has to be taken very seriously despite his penalty and with experience on his side, he is very much respected. However, he is also vulnerable at the weights to a newcomer with a bit of potential and that could come in the form of IMPERIAL ELIXIR. Fergal O'Brien has a decent record in bumpers and his gelding has some success in this sphere in his pedigree. With the yard in good form, perhaps he could be the one for today. Fresh New Dawn is a very interesting first bumper representative for his emerging trainer and Bit Of A Geordie stands out on pedigree for this type of contest, so she has to enter calculations.
  1. Imperial Elixir
  2. Buy Mistake
  3. Bit Of A Geordie
