Forecasts

Sharkeyboy (8/13), Green Soul (11/4), Fits Perfect (11/2), Plug In Hybrid (18/1), Borora Aura (22/1), Another Day Done (33/1), Dunmore (50/1), The Wee Man (66/1), Julie's Moon (66/1), Wills History (66/1)

Verdict

SHARKEYBOY is a useful Flat performer and should take plenty of beating now switched to hurdling for powerful connections, with Green Soul feared most after a promising hurdles debut at Cork on the back of 13 months off. Fits Perfect is also respected.
