Forecasts

Moonovercloon (3/1), Hide And Seek (7/2), Robindevidastar (5/1), Joshua Chamberlain (13/2), Craic Eile (13/2), Vale Of Glory (13/2), Willyouwalkwithme (8/1), Justicialism (8/1), Ask The Leader (12/1), Mac's Xpress (14/1), Laishann (16/1), Downthecellar (18/1), Monty's Way (25/1)

Verdict

This looks a strong race for the grade with WILLYOUWALKWITHME just about the most persuasive option as a triple C&D winner who ran a cracker on reappearance. Hide And Seek, Vale of Glory and Laishann head the opposition.

  1. WILLYOUWALKWITHME (IRE)
  2. HIDE AND SEEK (FR)
  3. VALE OF GLORY (IRE)
