Forecasts

Doyenna (3/1), Set Point (5/1), New Ross (7/1), Laser Focus (15/2), Starman (8/1), Craic Eile (10/1), Fascinating Shadow (11/1), Tom McGreevy (11/1), Frontline Worker (12/1), Breezy Bell (14/1), Take My Hand (14/1)

Verdict

Gordon Elliott's SET POINT has got better with each start over hurdles and will be a tough nut to crack if that trend continues. Doyenna made a sound return from a break at Kilbeggan 6 weeks ago and is feared most ahead of Starman, who appeals as a likely improver now moving into handicap company for the first time.
