Positive Thinker (10/11), Archies Charm (5/1), Willywampus (5/1), A Mere Bagatelle (6/1), Railway Hurricane (7/1), Irish Blaze (7/1), History Of Fashion (25/1)

Verdict

POSITIVE THINKER justified good support to make a winning start over fences at Tipperary in April and was a good second over hurdles at Ballinrobe 2 weeks ago, so remains of interest back in this sphere. Irish Blaze and Willwampus are feared most.

  1. POSITIVE THINKER (IRE)
  2. IRISH BLAZE (IRE)
  3. WILLYWAMPUS (IRE)
