Forecasts

Sam's Adventure (13/8), Thelongwayaround (9/4), Mighty Thunder (3/1), Flemens Story (9/1), Eagle Crag (20/1), Eagle Ridge (33/1), Uptown Harry (40/1), Fully Booked (50/1), Wataguddo (66/1), Captain Kurt (100/1), Just Brooke (100/1), Rocket Man Rodney (100/1)

Verdict

Both Thelongwayaround and Flemens Story have posted solid enough efforts over hurdles lately so ought to be competitive here, whilst Eagle Crag could be worth keeping a close eye upon on debut for Carrutherstown trainer Iain Jardine. However, SAM'S ADVENTURE was in a different parish to these rivals in bumpers (3-4) and assuming that he has been nursed back to anything like that level of performance by Brian Ellison should quickly resurrect his once promising racing career.
  1. Sam's Adventure
  2. Thelongwayaround
