Forecasts

Glyde Ranger (11/4), Bright N Shine (4/1), Come On The Lads (9/2), Warrior Lion (9/2), Autocrat (13/2), Velvet And Vine (17/2), Rockview Consort (20/1), Tomahawk King (25/1), Hangry (33/1), Inigo Jones (66/1)

Verdict

Following a couple of non-completions over hurdles, COME ON THE LADS offered more back on the level at Galway 11 days ago and assuming he sees this trip out, the assessor has given him a major chance. Glyde Ranger was an easy winner here last week so has to command respect, with Velvet And Wine another to consider for place purposes.

  1. Come On The Lads9/2
  2. Glyde Ranger11/4
  3. Velvet And Vine17/2
