Forecasts

First Approach (9/10), Diamond Turf (1/1), Largy Beach (40/1), Hill Of Keash (50/1), Arizengo (50/1), Lisclogher Flyer (100/1)

This is likely to develop into a match between First Approach and DIAMOND TURF who both go hurdling for the first time. Preference is for the latter who possibly has more scope for improvement and hails from a yard that have won this race four times in recent years.
