Forecasts

The Cola Kid (3/1), She's In The Game (3/1), Tai Sing Yeh (9/2), Strange Times (11/2), Fascinating Spirit (7/1), But You Said (8/1), Jm Barrie (11/1), Secret Road (18/1), Jazz And Blues (22/1), Coffeemeanscoffee (25/1), Kuwait Direction (28/1), Aunty Ceily (40/1), I've Got Wings (80/1)

Verdict

A low-grade sprint handicap with the vote in favour of TAI SING YEH. His losing run is a concern but he again found only one too good when collared late on at Fairyhouse 16 days ago and a repeat should see him firmly in the mix again. The Cola Kid and She's In The Game are others to consider, along with Strange Times.

  1. TAI SING YEH (IRE)
  2. THE COLA KID
  3. SHE'S IN THE GAME (IRE)
