3/1
Bumper winner at Wexford (over 2m4f) in May, coming right away late in the piece, and a perfectly solid first hurdles effort at Punchestown, but pulled up in Downpatrick maiden hurdle in June, before winning a Cork, maiden hurdle over 3m 11 days ago.

7/1
Seemed to enjoy the sounder surface when putting in a career-best performance at Ballinrobe in May, before fourth of 13 and second of 14 last day in Limerick 2m maiden hurdle two weeks ago.

20/1
Has won a point-to-point, and a Beginners' Chase at Sligo. Placed three times over hurdles, in maiden and novice company. Prone to the odd mistake and well beaten on last four starts.

50/1
Dead-heated in a 2m3f+ Kilbeggan bumper in April, but hasn't ever been able to get competitive in a couple of starts over hurdles so far.

Forecasts

Treasure Chest (9/4), Westland Row (5/2), Major Destination (3/1), Riverrainshine (7/1), Foxearth (9/1), Vinnie Luck (20/1), Lambs Lane (50/1)

Verdict

Competitive contest where we may see Rivverrainshine make the running with possibly, Treasure Chest and Foxearth following in behind. Major Destination and Westland Row not beaten far in Downpatrick extended 2m1f hurdle 12 days ago, can battle it out for the minor honours, but preference is for TREASURE CHEST, second of nine in Gowran Park 2m hurdle at the end of last month.
  1. Treasure Chest
  2. Westland Row
  3. Major Destination
