Forecasts

Top Bandit (5/6), Crowns Major (2/1), Ferdia (5/1), The Names Jock (11/1), Hammersmith (33/1), The Glenman (300/1)

11:55 Punchestown - 5 December 2021 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

Some potentially useful sorts in opposition here, but TOP BANDIT looks the way to go given he looked to have plenty left in the tank when bagging his third win of the season here last time. Crowns Major also has better days ahead of him too and rates the chief threat on the back of his Cork victory, with The Names Jock also not ruled out either.

  1. TOP BANDIT
  2. CROWNS MAJOR (JPN)
  3. THE NAMES JOCK (IRE)
