7/1

Age: 9| Weight: 10-13| J: Daire James McConville⁽⁷⁾| T: H De Bromhead| OR: 118| D

Forecasts

Castle Field Boy (11/4), Stuzzikini (9/2), Missiee (9/2), Whatsavailable (6/1), Angels Dawn (7/1), Ballyadam Destiny (7/1), Plains Indian (12/1), Bois De Clamart (25/1), Ronald Pump (28/1), Fully Charged (33/1), The Big Galloper (80/1)

WHATSAVAILABLE and Castle Field Boy filled the first two positions here last time and they might dominate this race, with the first-named marginally preferred. Stuzzikini arrives on the back of a good second in a Galway novice, so he's also likely to feature.
