Forecasts

Meri Devie (5/4), Ex Patriot (6/4), Duca De Thaix (11/4), Early Doors (3/1), Delta Work (11/2), Amaulino (50/1)

A potentially hot contest and, though Ex Patriot has the best form on the board, it's not beyond the realms that something could improve past him. Meri Devie is one alternative but Gordon Elliot's two Gigginstown runners, DELTA NETWORK and Duca De Thaix really take the eye, particularly the former who was a very impressive winner at Punchestown last back-end and looks the type to go on to better things.
