Forecasts

Sherodan (8/11), Four Clean Aces (11/10), Fermoyle (5/1), Invictus World (10/1), Sequestered (12/1), Granpa Ger (18/1), Verbal Sparring (33/1), Rene Artois (50/1), Boston Bobby (50/1), Inchidaly Robin (100/1), Deramore Park (125/1), The Vegas Raider (150/1), Eabha Rose (150/1), Due Course (200/1), Hurry Up Allen (250/1), Oldtown To Emly (250/1), Music Magic (250/1)

Verdict

FOUR CLEAN ACES won both her starts in bumpers and given the yard she represents, a winning hurdles debut looks firmly on the cards. Sherodan and Fermoyle should ensure the selection doesn't have it all her own way.

  1. FOUR CLEAN ACES (IRE)
  2. SHERODAN (IRE)
  3. FERMOYLE (IRE)
