Forecasts

Rotten Row (9/4), Pakens Rock (7/2), Top Line Tommy (9/2), Irish Blaze (5/1), Union Park (10/1), The Dara Man (11/1), Espion Du Chenet (14/1), Nelly's Money (22/1)

TOP LINE TOMMY is hardly prolific, but having opened his account over fences at Tramore in June, he looked set to go in again before falling at the last (race won by re-opposing Irish Blaze) at Downpatrick 11 days ago. He shades the vote in the hope his jumping holds up, with Irish Blaze and Pakens Rock, who has scored twice here already this summer, heading up the dangers.
