Forecasts

Cilaos Emery (4/9), Ornua (10/3), Duca De Thaix (7/1), Winter Escape (10/1), Kildorrery (25/1)

CILAOS EMERY comes with a big reputation given his excellent hurdles form and the manner of his only run and win over fences at Gowran Park in January; slight concern he has been off for so long but the market should give a solid indication of his chance. Winter Escape has the benefit of a recent outing when not given a hard ride when third recently at Tipperary. He will run a better race here and could take advantage of the selection's rustiness. Grade 1 winner Ornua will be popular and had a big chance to win the Arkle last season before falling. If back to his best he rates a danger though he may struggle to give weight away all round.
