Forecasts

Debuchet (4/5), High Tide (7/4), Cornelius Sulla (12/1), Coldamour (12/1), Vladakar (12/1), Thelunarschooner (33/1), Alice Johnston (33/1), Hiupinthesky (50/1), Quick Juke (66/1), Noreaway (66/1)

Verdict

Second in the Champion Bumper at Cheltenham last month, it will be something of a letdown should DEBUCHET not go one better here and add to his Leopardstown success in January in doing so. He was unfortunate to be gunned down by the flying filly Fayonagh in the Cotswolds and is very unlikely to meet anything of her ilk now. High Tide also scored at the Foxrock track on his debut in good style and, one of two for the O'Brien yard, he will be capable of taking advantage should the selection suffer any ill effects of his Cheltenham exploits. Coldamour and Vladakar renew hostilities having finished first and fourth respectively at Thurles last month and they should go well again.
