Forecasts
Felix Desjy (15/8), Blackbow (11/4), Darver Star (4/1), Embittered (13/2), Franco De Port (8/1), Benruben (40/1)
FELIX DESJY will need to jump better than he did in the Craddockstown Novices' Chase at Punchestown last time to maintain his unbeaten record over fences but he still rates the most persuasive option. Blackbow left his hurdles form trailing in his wake at Navan and is feared most.
