Forecasts

Alligator Alley (13/8), Lil Grey (9/2), Royal County Down (5/1), War Leader (5/1), Year Of The Tiger (7/1), Flight Command (8/1), Power Source (50/1), Urban Boom (50/1)

Verdict

Aidan O'Brien has three likely types, with ROYAL COUNTY DOWN perhaps the sharpest on paper, and riding arrangements seem to back that up. That said, Year Of The Tiger is out of the brilliant juvenile Tiggy Wiggy, and also needs respect, with Lil Grey and Alligator Alley the pick of those with experience.
  1. Royal County Down
  2. Lil Grey
  3. Year Of The Tiger
