Forecasts

Shoot To Kill (7/4), Comfort Line (9/2), Nikki Swango (9/2), Sayifyouwill (11/2), Rumbled Again (9/1), Skontonovski (11/1), Nezeeh (14/1), Big Baby Bull (28/1), Clonmacash (28/1), Boomerang Bill (50/1), Signor Ferrari (100/1), Dear Daphne (150/1), The Expert (200/1)

SAYIFYOUWILL has a few quirks but she outclassed the opposition in a similar race to this over 1m 3 weeks ago and in the hope she gets a good pace to aim at, she can score again for new connections. Shoot To Kill is likely to give it another good go, while Nikki Swango could be the pick of the Adrian McGuinness quartet.
