Forecasts

Beggars Rock (5/2), Calm Flight Ahead (10/3), Lilac Lady (7/1), Derry Lad (7/1), Dairy Force (15/2), Chantilly Wings (15/2), Quint Major (8/1), Earl Neigh (33/1), Viceregent (33/1), Migdam (33/1), Portnacoo (33/1), Gone For Tea (50/1)

Verdict

BEGGARS ROCK arrives chasing a hat-trick after a pair of wins over fences, including at this track, and is taken to exploit his lower hurdles mark. Calm Flight Ahead was much improved when scoring at Sligo last time and rates the chief threat despite a 12 lb rise, while Quint Major has shown signs of a revival and is also respected.

  1. BEGGARS ROCK (IRE)
  2. CALM FLIGHT AHEAD (IRE)
  3. QUINT MAJOR (IRE)
