Forecasts

Major Destination (11/4), Boston Spray (4/1), Whatsinthecorner (9/2), Hickey's Rock (5/1), Optimised (11/2), Echo Lady (8/1), Rwegoinhigh (25/1), Vellutato (50/1), Sweet Destination (50/1), Vodka Society (66/1), Rail Park Lad (80/1), Dora Marquez (100/1)

Verdict

Hickey's Rock and Optimised could dispute the early lead here, with Echo Lady and, third of 14, beaten 6½L in Wexford maiden hurdle last week, Whatsinthecorner, in behind with the selection, MAJOR DESTINATION, who showed a perfectly solid first hurdles effort at Punchestown, but pulled up, when beaten last time out and can put that behind him here.
