Forecasts

Kinturk Kalanisi (5/4), Special Cadeau (2/1), Born Braver (11/4), Insouciant Dallier (16/1), Lough Owel (20/1), Last Round (40/1), Kinbara Hills (200/1)

Verdict

SPECIAL CADEAU can build on his Naas hurdle debut fourth and strike for Willie Mullins. Lough Owel should benefit from the increased test of stamina now hurdling and is second choice ahead of Punchestown runner-up Kinturk Kalanisi.
