Castle North (7/4), Summer Hill (7/2), Generator City (7/2), Hell Or High Water (7/1), Acronym (8/1), Cats For Cash (9/1), Last One (20/1), Kate O C B (66/1), Eltico (66/1)

Verdict

The Willie Mullins-trained CASTLE NORTH can get off the mark at the seventh time of asking for his handler building on a solid fourth of 16 in a Kilbeggan maiden hurdle last month. Conditions look ideal for the Stowaway gelding to see off the attentions of a couple of highly promising six-year-olds in Acronym and Generator City.
  1. Castle North
