Forecasts

Veneziano Springs (9/4), Monbeg Chit Chat (3/1), Freeway Space (5/1), Fintara (7/1), Doldido (10/1), Golan Lodge (10/1), Johnny Sue (14/1), Lyreen Lad (25/1), Robbina (25/1), Winter Breeze (33/1), Ballykea Star (50/1)

Verdict

MONBEG CHIT CHAT is a tentative choice in a puzzling beginners' chase. An expensive purchase after winning a maiden hurdle, he was unlucky on his chasing bow and ran no race last time. He's given a chance to bounce back. Golan Lodge is a danger on the balance of his form and after hinting at better to come last time, while Fintara, Doldido, Veneziano Springs, and Lyreen Lad are other possible players.
