Forecasts

Mahler Mission (6/4), Churchstonewarrior (9/4), Must Be Obeyed (8/1), Glengouly (9/1), Frontal Assault (11/1), Flanking Maneuver (16/1), Aarons Day (16/1), Darrens Hope (25/1), Francin (33/1), Walking On Glass (66/1)

Verdict

CHURCHSTONEWARRIOR has taken well to chasing and is fancied to gain a deserved first win in this sphere on the back of his very good Leopardstown second last time out. Willie Mullins' Glengouly has more to offer and is feared most, although both Mahler Mission and Frontal Assault need considering too in a competitive Grade 2.

  1. CHURCHSTONEWARRIOR (IRE)
