Forecasts

Nells Choice (3/1), Iamagetaway (10/3), Yorkshire Escape (4/1), Spinola Bay (7/1), Way Down South (7/1), Speranza Wilde (10/1), Mother Ship (12/1), Muskerry Rock (12/1), Weir Lane (12/1), Annamaymurt (12/1), Siul Molly Siul (28/1), Stonecarthy (28/1), French Hill (33/1), Fortuna Lora (40/1), Dreamings Free (40/1), On The Gandy Hop (50/1), Theblazen Queen (66/1), Positive Mindset (66/1), Finnfaraway (66/1), Rag N Bone (80/1), Another Question (150/1)

Verdict

SPINOLA BAY took a step forward when fifth at Tramore last week and, with the longer trip expected to suit based on his pedigree, he could well progress again and open his account. The dangers are headed by standard-settler Nells Choice and Iamagetaway, who is likely to improve on his opening effort in this sphere at Wexford.
