Forecasts

Allaho (13/8), Bravemansgame (9/4), Shishkin (10/3), Hewick (12/1), The Real Whacker (14/1), Frodon (28/1)

If ALLAHO is still capable of the form he showed when demolishing a bunch of established Grade 1 chasers at Punchestown in April 2022 on his previous attempt at 3m he should come out on top. Last year's winner Bravemansgame can give him most to do, although Shishkin is also more than capable of having a big say if in the mood.
