Forecasts

Lord Justice (3/1), Theophilus (3/1), El Tren (5/1), Nonetheless (11/2), Tropic Thunder (8/1), Awareness (10/1), Black Label (12/1), Nelson Road (25/1), Donnerhall (40/1)

Verdict

Nonetheless could be left to make the running here and is taking to hold on to a place here, Theophilus, third of 19, beaten 4¼L in 1m2f Curragh apprentice race three weeks ago on seasonal debut, will come on for the run, but preference is for, LORD JUSTICE, second of 15, beaten a head, in 2m Limerick handicap hurdle last day following third of 12, beaten 2¾L in a Ballinrobe handicap on the Flat in June.
  1. Lord Justice
  2. Theophilus
  3. Nonetheless
