Forecasts

Beacon Edge (10/11), Minella Melody (13/8), Grand Roi (13/2), Happy Jacky (22/1)

Verdict

MINELLA MELODY enjoyed a highly productive first season over hurdles and is taken to go in at the first time of asking this term with her yard in such good nick. Grand Roi should ensure Henry de Bromhead's likeable mare doesn't get things all her own way though on his debut for Gordon Elliott, and recent Downpatrick scorer Beacon Edge is greatly respected too in an intriguing contest.

  1. MINELLA MELODY (IRE)
  2. GRAND ROI (FR)
  3. BEACON EDGE (IRE)
