Forecasts

Sporting Ace (11/10), Gladiateur Allen (16/5), Keable (11/2), Halifax (8/1), Ballymagroarty Boy (9/1), Rocco (25/1), Carlow Farmer (66/1)

SPORTING ACE has taken well to hurdles and is fancied to resume winning ways on the back of his excellent second here 3 weeks ago. Handicap debutant Keable rates a big threat if, as expected, building on previous efforts over this longer trip. In-form maiden Halifax appeals as the pick of the rest for minor honours.
