Forecasts

Tommy Combats (9/4), Too Cool Forshrule (4/1), Emotional Roller (11/2), Empty Nest (6/1), The Jad Factor (13/2), Always A Reason (9/1), Stylish Recruit (10/1), King Horse (33/1), Gandhi Maker (50/1), Goodoldbill (50/1)

Verdict

A few with chances but TOMMY COMBATS rates just the pick of the weights and is taken to gain a deserved victory after a run of good second placings. Tool Cool Forshrule can also go well from an easing mark, while fencing newcomer Always A Reason and last year's victor The Jad Factor seem sure to be on the premises too in this competitive handicap. Emotional Roller completes the shortlist.

  1. TOMMY COMBATS (IRE)
  2. TOO COOL FORSHRULE (IRE)
  3. ALWAYS A REASON (IRE)
