Forecasts

Fury Road (11/8), Beacon Edge (15/8), French Dynamite (3/1), Darasso (6/1), Sixshooter (7/1), Tiger Roll (11/1), Scarpeta (16/1), Decor Irlandais (16/1)

Verdict

At the forecast prices it may pay to side with BEACON EDGE back over a more suitable trip having found the Limestone Lad Hurdle an inadequate test of stamina 3 weeks ago. Fury Road is the obvious danger back in Grade 2 company.

  1. BEACON EDGE (IRE)
  2. FURY ROAD (IRE)
  3. DARASSO (FR)
