Forecasts

Coolnacritta (11/10), Downthecellar (2/1), Shantou Warrior (8/1), Tagg's Island (10/1), Pak Army (14/1), Strong Roots (14/1), Muntahez (20/1), Mater Matuta (25/1), Rags Kitten (33/1), Glebe Girl (33/1), Novano (40/1), Hitchcock (50/1), Sienne D'or (66/1), Jj Nester (66/1), Royal Finesse (80/1), Nobrainnoheadache (100/1), Colman's Courage (125/1)

Verdict

DOWNTHECELLAR is much lower in the weights over hurdles and is best forgiven for running out at Wexford (only second time he'd raced left-handed) last time, so he's an obvious choice to get back to winning ways. Recent Fairyhouse scorer Coolnacritta is the obvious danger under a 5-lb penalty.
