Forecasts

Golden Taipan (7/5), Flashing Glance (9/4), Raya Time (9/2), Battle Of Actium (9/2), Storm Rising (16/1)

Verdict

Having opened his chase account at Wexford in July, RAYA TIME was badly let down by his jumping when last seen at Galway later that month. However, the switch to this less demanding scenario will help on debut for his new yard and he gets the nod. Golden Taipan is next best, ahead of another making his yard debut in the shape of Battle of Actium.

  2. GOLDEN TAIPAN (IRE)
