Forecasts

Minella Escape (5/6), Brazos (7/2), Ragnar Lodbrok (7/2), Frontal Assault (4/1), Angels Dawn (13/2), Shuil Luas (80/1)

RAGNAR LODBROK disappointed in Grade 1 company last time, but the return to 3m should be right up his street and he's worth another chance with his previous hurdles/bumper form reading quite well. Minella Escape looked a good prospect at Tramore, while Brazos edged out an odds-on favourite at Navan and this longer trip could prompt further improvement.
