Forecasts

Mr Champers (4/1), You Can't Catch Me (11/2), Pursecco (7/1), Drakaina (8/1), Coolfighter (9/1), Like An Open Book (10/1), Turasoir (10/1), Gentleman Duke (14/1), Seaboard (14/1), Carrigready (16/1), Rock On Bach (20/1), Sea's Aria (20/1), Sackfullofdreams (25/1)

Verdict

Wexford winner Drakaina ran another notable race last month to be second at Tramore and should be competitive again off a 2lb higher mark while Pursecco is also give a squeak after a decent effort at the same track. You Can't Catch Me has won four times around this track, including on the Flat over this trip in May and enters calculations but if MR CHAMPERS has sharpened his jumping a bit, that might be enough to help him overcome the 8lb rise for his winning handicap start at Cork in July.
  1. Mr Champers
  2. Drakaina
  3. You Can't Catch Me
