Forecasts

Colonel Mustard (5/6), Harry Alonzo (15/8), Gortmillish (3/1), Gamin Original (7/1), Whiskeywealth (8/1), Greenhill Damsel (20/1), Champagne Vacation (40/1), Petrocco (40/1), My Boy Bob (150/1), Dardedze (150/1), Galway Johnny (150/1)

Verdict

COLONEL MUSTARD produced a useful effort when runner-up in the Grade 1 Champion Novices' Hurdle at Punchestown in April and a repeat of that performance on return will make him very hard to beat. Harry Alonzo was talented in bumpers and should be a force in this sphere.
