Forecasts

Fact To File (8/13), Will Do (9/4), Irish Panther (17/2), Ask Anything (12/1), Kalanisi Flash (18/1), Iconic Flame (33/1), Free Parking (66/1), Matilda Park (100/1), Toor Moon (125/1), Storm Barra (200/1)

Verdict

The obvious starting point is FACT TO FILE, who represents powerful connections and he looks the part when scoring between the flags in February. Needless to say, it will be an ominous sign for his rivalsif there's confidence behind him in the betting. Will Do was runner-up in a maiden hurdle at Punchestown on Rules debut and should make his presence felt but Irish Panther is second choice. He had subsequent bumper/hurdles winner Leave of Absence behind in third when second in a point last year.

  1. FACT TO FILE (FR)
  2. IRISH PANTHER
  3. WILL DO (IRE)
