Forecasts

Drumbear (5/2), Ballycoose (10/3), The Dasher Conway (4/1), Hammersmith (6/1), Summer Tide (7/1), Pike County (9/1), Rodaniche (11/1), Clifton Warrior (14/1), Faith Du Val (20/1), Stansfield (66/1), Sam Lorenzo (80/1)

Verdict

DRUMBEAR galloped on strongly up the straight on his Musselburgh hurdling debut, despite being plenty keen enough early, so with this drop back in trip holding no fears, he's fancied to go in again. Pike County caught the eye back in this sphere at Leopardstown over Christmas and is one to bear in mind, as is the unbeaten Ballycoose, who created a good impression at Ayr last month.
