Forecasts

Gladiatorial (10/3), Katherine (5/1), Big Leg Up (11/2), Attitash (13/2), Western Comandor (7/1), Jimli's Island (7/1), Kilmacurkin (9/1), Son Of Hypnos (12/1), Faith Loving (12/1), Tony's Pet (66/1)

Verdict

JIMLI'S ISLAND has dropped a long way in the weights and showed that he retains ability back from a lengthy absence at Down Royal last time so, in a thin race, he's worth taking a chance on. Katherine is also on a handy mark and took a step back in the right direction recently, so she's feared along with Gladiatorial.

  1. JIMLI'S ISLAND
  2. KATHERINE (IRE)
  3. GLADIATORIAL (IRE)
