Forecasts

Hollow Games (9/4), Minella Crooner (10/3), Grand Jury (10/3), Whatdeawant (5/1), Eric Bloodaxe (7/1), Bronn (17/2), Minella Cocooner (11/1), Freedom To Dream (28/1)

HOLLOW GAMES emerged with plenty of credit despite losing his unbeaten record in the Lawlor's of Naas Novice Hurdle last time and remains capable of better, especially now stepping back up in trip, so he's an appealing candidate. Whatdeawant shaped better than the bare result in the same race and is worth another chance, with Grand Jury and Eric Bloodaxe also respected.
