Forecasts

Tellherthename (8/15), Push The Button (9/2), Ruby Island (9/2), Matchless (14/1)

Verdict

Not the easiest race to assess and useful winning hurdler PUSH THE BUTTON is taken to go in at the first time of asking in this sphere starting out for Mark Walford. Both Ruby Island and Tellherthename also bring lots of potential to fences and can chase home the selection in that order.

  1. PUSH THE BUTTON (IRE)
  2. RUBY ISLAND
  3. TELLHERTHENAME (IRE)
