Forecasts

Verdict

A few with chances but RICKY LANGFORD comes here on the back of a career-best success at Killarney and is fancied to defy a 6 lb rise in the weights at the chief expense of in-form Early Arrival. Course winner Well Joey is another who can have a say in an open handicap.

  1. RICKY LANGFORD (IRE)
  2. EARLY ARRIVAL (IRE)
  3. WELL JOEY (IRE)
