Forecasts

Garran City (6/5), Samburu Shujaa (2/1), Reelingintheyears (4/1), Ocean Cove (11/2), Buster Moon (16/1), Big Fred (16/1), Alminar (33/1), Jurys Out (33/1), Maronette (80/1), Ballymagroarty Boy (100/1), Wahwonaisa (100/1), Cadira Beeches (100/1)

GARRAN CITY went close in a stronger looking race than this last time and sets a high standard for the others to aim at. Samburu Shujaa is more exposed but looks the main danger, particularly as he has jumped or hung left on his last couple of starts on right-handed circuits. Ocean Cove is best of the rest with the drop to 2m4f looking a well-considered move.
