Forecasts

Slade Steel (6/5), Ballygunner Castle (15/8), Argento Boy (5/1), Goraibhmaithagat (9/1), Jigoro (12/1), Prophet's Corner (22/1), Pray Tell (28/1), Built By Ballymore (33/1), My Trump Card (33/1), Da Capo Glory (66/1), Hello Jack (100/1)

Verdict

SLADE STEEL has bumped into some strong opposition when runner-up on all 3 chase starts and can come good over fences now. Willie Mullins pair Ballygunner, the mount of Paul Townend, and Argento Boy can give him most to do.

  1. SLADE STEEL (IRE)
  2. BALLYGUNNER CASTLE (IRE)
  3. ARGENTO BOY (IRE)
