Forecasts

The Liffey (2/1), Land Of The Giants (3/1), Independent Expert (3/1), Albion Power (8/1), North Ocean (9/1), Wolfpack (11/1), Battle Borne (14/1), Cosmic Force (14/1), Imperial Fighter (25/1), Yosemite Gold (40/1), Ledger (150/1)

Verdict

THE LIFFEY has been freshened up since a lesser effort here in March and is taken to bounce back and land a third course claiming win in his last 4 starts. Wolfpack hasn't shown much over hurdles since joining Gordon Elliott but will be a major threat if retaining anything like the ability which saw him win on the Flat in Britain last summer. Land of The Giants is next on the list.
