Forecasts

Run Wild Fred (9/4), Vanillier (5/2), Fury Road (7/1), Ontheropes (7/1), Mr Incredible (10/1), Bacardys (12/1), Ashdale Bob (12/1), Max Flamingo (28/1)

It took RUN WILD FRED nine attempts to open his account over fences, but he did so in good style in the Troytown at Navan and a reproduction of that performance will make him tough to beat. Second choice is Ontheropes, who also contested a big handicap chase last time, finishing fourth in the Ladbrokes Trophy at Newbury. Vanillier landed a Punchestown Grade 2 last month and merits respect, too.
