Forecasts

Galvin (11/10), Run Wild Fred (10/3), Battleoverdoyen (9/2), Politesse (11/2), Lord Lariat (20/1), Macgiloney (66/1)

Verdict

GALVIN won this contest on last year's reappearance and should be good for a repeat. The main threat is likely to come from stablemate Run Wild Fred assuming his confidence hasn't been dented by a couple of falls in the spring.

  1. GALVIN (IRE)
  2. RUN WILD FRED (IRE)
  3. BATTLEOVERDOYEN (IRE)
