Forecasts

Black Warrior (4/7), Tesseract (4/1), Everyday Everyhour (5/1), Little Stevie (10/1), Fleurys Fort (16/1), L'Attesa (20/1), Windsor Higgins (66/1), Nancys Icon (66/1), Coral Pearl (66/1), Generous Bond (66/1), Mount Oliver (66/1)

Verdict

BLACK WARRIOR was a useful novice hurdler last season and can get off the mark at the second time of asking over fences in this. The selection finished runner-up at Ballinrobe last time out and can get the better of five time winner Tesseract who is making his chasing debut in this. Point-to-point winner Everyday Everyhour is another making his debut over fences and he is another to have some solid form over hurdles last season.
  1. Black Warrior
