Forecasts

Pretty Boy Floyd (3/1), Strong Johnson (10/3), Indigo Balance (4/1), Jungle Jane (9/2), My Laureate (7/1), Rough Diamond (8/1), Goodnight Girl (10/1), Tide Of Time (12/1), Mi Esperanza (14/1), Dandy Spirit (14/1), Shelly Banks (16/1), Livingston Range (50/1)

Verdict

STRONG JOHNSON will be tough to beat if he repeats his Tipperary display here. He's a C&D winner and there is every chance he can defy this career high mark. Rough Diamond is lightly raced and has some good form at this venue so he'll be a big danger. Dandy Spirit is one of several with each-way claims.

  1. STRONG JOHNSON (IRE)
  2. ROUGH DIAMOND (IRE)
  3. DANDY SPIRIT (IRE)
