€62,000 3-y-o, Shantou gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler Balleticon. Makes some appeal on paper and would be worthy of interest if strong in the betting,

5/1

Failed to beat a rival in a point but showed plenty when runner-up in a bumper at Bangor a month ago. Performance of similar merit should be enough for him to go one better.

Forecasts

Denemethy (6/4), Mister Meggit (11/4), Panhandle Slim (5/1), Wal Buck's (11/2), Askmore (11/1), Great Warford (20/1), Adveram (50/1), She Won't Mind (50/1), Wolfburg (80/1), Western Glen (80/1), Cave Hill (100/1), Ideal Vision (100/1)

PANHANDLE SLIM made a highly promising start when runner-up at Bangor last month and he probably won't need to improve to open his account. Point-winner Denemethy is a big danger and Mister Meggit is one to note if he attracts support.
