Forecasts

Sayo (10/11), Mister Blue Sky (9/4), Jaime Sommers (5/2), Ornua (9/2), Mengli Khan (17/2), Dolciano Dici (80/1)

The Willie Mullins pair both come here with live chances. The 142-rated Sayo should give a good account under champion jockey Paul Townend, as should Mister Blue Sky, out of luck in a couple of starts on the Flat recently. The Gordon Elliott-trained, MENGLI KHAN will be more at home back over hurdles and a C&D recently conquered last month, beating Jaime Sommers, 1L. The seven-year-old has held his form this year, running well in defeat in a couple of Grade 3 contests. The Henry De Bromhead-trained Ornua should not be taken lightly
