Forecasts

Sweet Will (85/40), The Tack Room (3/1), Difficult Decision (9/2), Mont Saint Vincent (15/2), Ciao Bella (9/1), Kalli's Quest (9/1), Norwigi (16/1), Broken Ice (22/1)

Verdict

SWEET WILL looked an improved model when scoring twice over hurdles within the space of 3 days in November and, having been given plenty of time to recover from those exertions, the 6-y-o is likely to prove hard to beat off a potentially very handy mark back in this sphere. The Tack Room is better than he was able to show in the Limerick handicap won by Difficult Decision and is next on the list ahead of Mont Saint Vincent.

  2. THE TACK ROOM
  3. MONT SAINT VINCENT (FR)
