Forecasts
Path Of Silver (4/1), Allegio (9/2), Ruler Of France (9/2), Mr Ormsby (7/1), Settle For Red (7/1), Mountain Fox (8/1), Yamato (14/1), Avalanche (16/1), County Show (16/1), Appointment Only (25/1), Aegeus (25/1), Cairdiuil (33/1), Polymnia (33/1), Sir Henry Raeburn (66/1)
Ruler Of France and Allegio will break together from stalls, 10 and 11, making the early pace. Avalanche, who failed to land a hat-trick of wins in Tipperary handicap when eighth of 16, beaten 5L behind Zippy, following wins at Limerick and Cork over 1m, Allegio, third of 13, beaten 2¾L behind Storm Ranger in Tipperary 1m1f handicap are expected to go well, but preference is for SETTLE FOR RED, second of 13, beaten 2¼L at Tipperary three weeks ago.
- Settle For Red
- Avalanche
- Allegio
