Forecasts

Min (4/9), Saint Calvados (4/1), Simply Ned (13/2), Castlegrace Paddy (9/1), Ordinary World (12/1), Special Tiara (14/1)

MIN was a Grade 1 winner on his reappearance in the John Durkan and, dropping in distance, this test is perfect for him. He had no problem dispatching old rival Simply Ned in this a year ago and, admirable as that veteran is, he looks vulnerable despite his gallant Christmas win over C&D. A bigger danger could be Saint Calvados, the second British raider. He won well at Naas on his reappearance and cannot be harshly judged having finished behind Altior and Un De Sceaux since in the Tingle Creek. His best days are in front of him but he may be hassled here by Special Tiara in front, and that isn't ideal. Castlegrace Paddy ran well last-time-out over C&D.
