Forecasts

Kilbarry Hill (11/10), Idefix De Ciergues (5/1), Clondaw Royale (11/2), Ultra Beat (11/2), I See The Sea (7/1), Captain Wallace (7/1), Jo Lescribaa (9/1), Wexford Park (80/1), Exclusive Getaway (150/1), Streamsforth Lad (150/1)

Verdict

KILBARRY HILL shaped well when third on his Warwick hurdle debut last month and is taken to improve past Clondaw Royale, who was narrowly ahead of him in second on that occasion. Idefix de Ciergues also rates a likely improver following an encouraging hurdles debut run at Ffos Las in October.

  3. IDEFIX DE CIERGUES (FR)
