Forecasts

Port Joulain (11/8), Good N' Kind (7/4), Tumuch (7/1), His Nibs (9/1), Whatsyourproblem (12/1), Remember'hesmine (20/1), Mr Dibbs (25/1), Kate Knows Best (28/1), Two Mile House (150/1), Clonmihil (150/1)

Verdict

Two expensive point recruits representing top connections are likely to dominate this, with PORT JULAIN taking marginal preference over Tumuch, although both appeal as bright prospects. Whatsyourproblem showed up well in a novice hurdle and Clonmel, so he makes most appeal of the remainder.

  1. PORT JOULAIN (FR)
  2. TUMUCH (FR)
  3. WHATSYOURPROBLEM (IRE)
