    Does anyone have any opinions in this one? I like Guard Your Dreams at 11-2, as he has course form, and I think that he’s still improving.

    I think that Ballyadam is a very interesting runner too

    This is the sort of race that sceau royal usually mops up

    3/1 seems very fair if the rain stays away

    If there is any gd in the going description on the day I may back him

    Ballyadam is very overrated because of his colours

    I’d be all over Sceau Royal for this if it weren’t for his trip to Newcastle a fortnight ago. The ground was very gluey that day and the tough race he endured there may have left its mark.

    Yeah if it weren’t for the quick turnaround after a tough race in the Fighting Fifth I’d be all over Sceau Royal. I’m sitting this one out now.

    Not the greatest of fields. If Ballyadam can improve a bit, he might win this. He is getting weight from Sceau Royal and Song for Someone.

    Ballyadam 6/1

    Song For Someone looks to have a decent shout so will throw a dart his way.

    I’m in the Ballyadam camp , always happy to take on sceau royal and song for someone isn’t exactly consistent so he looks the value

    Pick 3 on Saturday champion 2025/2026

    I would usually shy away from two bets in a race like this, but Heaven Help Us at 9-1, and Hunters Call at 18-1 for me

    Used to be a decent race, I think this is pretty uninspiring…..

    And I do wish they’d drop the International name, and return the Bula name. NH simply isn’t really international, in fact we see far less foreign raiders that we once did.

    Ballyadam, 13/2 each way in the dead eight.

    I’ll join roses with Guard Your Dreams. Agree about the name, calling it the “International” is even more ridiculous than a baseball “World Series”.

    Sceau royal will win if the grounds not went dead, havent checked times from previous races but 3/1 looks more than fair
