Forecasts

Young Dev (11/10), The Ballyboys (4/1), Kavanaghs Corner (6/1), Halsafari (7/1), Sweet As A Nut (11/1), Solar Heat (12/1), Just Call Me (16/1), Tongie (20/1), Shrewdoperator (20/1)

Verdict

YOUNG DEV demolished a 14 runner field in a Limerick handicap hurdle last month and can transfer that form over the larger obstacles racing 12lbs lower than his mark over timber. The Denis Hogan-trained gelding can hold off the attentions of gallant veteran Kavanagh's Corner for trainer Henry De Bromhead while top weight Halsafari and Solar Heat can compete for remaining prize money. The Ballyboys for trainer Ray Hackett should not be underestimated representing a yard that are known to ready one at this meeting.
