Forecasts
Bally Conor (1/1), Nelson Road (5/1), Bluefortytwo (5/1), Looks Like Murt (11/2), Carry On Arcadio (7/1), Enfin Phil (10/1), Native Fighter (20/1), Knockoura (25/1), Metro Boulot Dodo (50/1), Nearly Man (50/1), The Boo Box (100/1), Manicman (100/1)
In a race where several of these have achieved a similar level of form so far the vote goes to recent Ayr second BLUEFORTYTWO who had a couple of these behind in that most promising effort. Bally Conor was also second latest and the fact it was over C&D only adds to his appeal here. Another likely to soon be winning races is Looks Like Murt who started well over hurdles.
