Forecasts
Nuts Well (3/1), Ballyhill (3/1), Forest Bihan (7/2), Mcgroarty (9/2), Theflyingportrait (8/1), Theo (17/2), Simply Ned (9/1)
A contest featuring four runners who have won the last five renewals but a chance is taken that we could have a new name to the honours list as the improving MCGROARTY continues his rapid rise up the chasing ranks. His stablemate Theo is a reliable campaigner while Forest Bihan won this two years ago, is well handicapped and goes well fresh. Nuts Well was progressive last year and is a danger to add to last season's reappearance win in this contest. The Flyingportrait has a superb record at this track, is in form and is another previous winner of this race along with Simply Ned who is perhaps less well handicapped.
