Forecasts

Mon Palois (10/3), Buster Thomas (4/1), Romanor (11/2), Aeglos (11/2), St Lawrence Gap (13/2), Shoal Bay (7/1), Elkstone (9/1), Court Duty (25/1), Goldencard (80/1)

Hard to find an outstanding candidate amongst this group but with the Olly Murphy yard having made such a fair start to the season ST LAWRENCE GAP on stable debut is taken to find his feet again having been third to subsequent Arkle winner Put The Kettle On at Tipperary last July. A literal reading of that form would make him look well handicapped here. Romanor will need another fast-paced race to repeat his Stratford win where he may have had a fitness advantage. Both Aeglos and Mon Palois looks to have handicapping scope but need to prove themselves over fences while a market move for long-time absent Buster Thomas should be noted.
