Forecasts

All Those Years (9/4), Ferdia (3/1), De Lady In Red (4/1), Young Fitzy (9/2), The Little Yank (11/2), Ilmig (7/1), Pale Blue Dot (33/1), The Niffler (250/1)

Verdict

DE LADY IN RED ran well in defeat in handicap company last time and is fancied to resume winning ways back in a novice. Ferdia posted a good effort at Leopardstown over Christmas and is feared most unless the betting speaks in the favour of the Charles Byrnes-trained All Those Years on his return from an absence.
