On a card with plenty of short-priced favourites, BLACK THUNDER looks to be the shortest and given that he had a few of these behind him last time out, he’ll be hard to beat here. Green Flag was one of those behind the favourite last time but he was tenderly handled after coming back from a long absence and may well step forward here. Premier Portrait looks capable of winning at this level, as does Wicklow Lad, but all of them may be chasing Black Thunder home. 1. Black Thunder 2. Green Flag 3. Premier Portrait
