Forecasts

Lough Derg Farmer (11/4), Chef D'Oeuvre (11/4), Kilcullen Flem (3/1), Lowanbehold (9/1), Nakadam (10/1), Kilbree Chief (14/1), Samstown (20/1)

Verdict

You can pick holes in the form of the entire field here, but the race is probably more intriguing for that. Kilbree Chief is on a handy mark if he can get back to something like his best, while Nakadam should go well but is not easy to win with. Kilcullen Farm has the ability but also a bit to prove and the three to concentrate on look to be Chef D'Oeuvre, Lowanbehold and LOUGH DERG FARMER. The last-named gets the vote after appearing to get back on track last time.
  1. Lough Derg Farmer
  2. Lowanbehold
  3. Chef D'Oeuvre
