Forecasts

King Alex (5/4), Enjoy D'allen (7/2), Fully Charged (5/1), Key Commander (8/1), Bois De Clamart (12/1), Lean Araig (16/1), Agent Boru (16/1), Oscar Academy (20/1), Uaintseenothingyet (20/1), The Dabbler (25/1), Moratorium (50/1)

Verdict

KING ALEX failed to make much of an impact in a couple of runs over fences during his 2018/19 campaign, but he is every inch an improved model this season, winning 3 of his 4 starts over hurdles. Granted a good round of jumping back in this sphere, he'll prove a tough nut to crack. Key Commander opened his chase account at Thurles last month and is feared most ahead of Enjoy D'allen.

  1. KING ALEX (FR)
  2. KEY COMMANDER (IRE)
  3. ENJOY D'ALLEN (FR)
