Forecasts

Embassy Gardens (5/6), Itswhatunitesus (1/1), Minella Majestic (12/1), Jewelinthesky (18/1), Atacanter (40/1), Nibbles (50/1), Wee Charlie (80/1), Ranger Billy (80/1), Thirsty Thursday (125/1), Catrionas Darling (200/1)

Verdict

An impressive bumper winner on debut, ITSWHATUNITESUS showed plenty of promise on his hurdling bow at Galway last month and he can build on that effort to record a first success over timber. Embassy Gardens is the biggest threat to the selection making his hurdles debut for Willie Mullins, with Jewelinthesky the pick of the remainder.
