9/2

Once-raced maiden. Third of 15 in bumper at Killarney (17f, good to soft, 6/5) on NH debut 78 days ago, left with too much to do. Open to improvement and should take all the beating.

Forecasts

Arctic Gale (7/4), Shoot Champagne (10/3), My Great Mate (9/2), If You Let Me (6/1), Wrecking Ballbilly (13/2), Topgun Simmy (11/1), Pinyon Jay (12/1), Master Otis (18/1), Money To Burn (20/1), Where's My Jet (25/1), Hypersonic Missile (33/1), Champayne Girl (33/1), Spotthedifference (100/1), Saynothinatall (100/1), Ceis Charraigin (150/1), Dream Shaper (150/1)

MY GREAT MATE shaped with encouragement at Killarney on debut and, with improvement anticipated, he's the one to beat although Pinyon Jay is an interesting newcomer for Gordon Elliott. Wrecking Ballbilly is another one to consider.
