Forecasts

Thats Jet (3/1), Cossack Chach (4/1), Sparkit (4/1), Kyogo (5/1), Show No Fear (11/2), Allesnick (14/1), Charlie Darling (16/1), Reel Her In (18/1), Let's Avit (33/1), Teejaydee (125/1), Northern Rose (150/1)

Verdict

SPARKIT took well to hurdling at the first attempt when third at Tipperary just over a fortnight ago so he's fancied to put that experience to good use with first-time headgear enlisted. Kyogo represents top trainer Gordon Elliott, so he has to be feared on hurdling debut, with Thats Jet and Reel Her In another couple to consider in a tricky opener to solve.

  1. SPARKIT (IRE)
  2. KYOGO (IRE)
