Forecasts

How About No (1/1), Heroes Rise (9/4), Napper Tandy (4/1), Kudasheva (4/1), Head For Home (14/1), La Vega Moon (16/1), Granda George (28/1), Diamond Duke (33/1), Master Of The Sums (50/1), Meadow Soprano (200/1), Barrakilla Vage (200/1), Hellascope (200/1)

Verdict

The vote goes to HEROES RISE, who improved on his hurdling debut form when behind a couple of promising sorts at Kilbeggan last month and promises to do better still. How About No and Kudasheva are feared most in that order.

  1. HEROES RISE (IRE)
  2. HOW ABOUT NO (FR)
  3. KUDASHEVA (IRE)
