Forecasts

Rapid Response (7/4), Chead Solas (4/1), Ozzie's Way (9/2), The White Volcano (9/2), Gun Merchant (11/2), Roman Rock (10/1), Last Encounter (18/1), Mr Lombardi (20/1), Peterstown (22/1), Henry Brown (40/1), The Three Wizards (40/1)

Stamina for this far is unknown territory for a few of these, including CHEAD SOLAS, but he represents a yard in superb form and he isn't overburdened on this chase debut. Rapid Response spurned a good opening at Tramore a fortnight ago but remains a threat, along with The White Volcano.
