Forecasts

Ingleby Mackenzie (13/8), Mohart (11/2), Miracle Cure (7/1), Masterchippy (8/1), Loch Luatha (9/1), Still Alive (10/1), Island Villa (16/1), Emilyogue (16/1), Jimmy's Choice (20/1), Coherent (25/1), Saint Irini (28/1), Daigreen (50/1)

INGLEBY MACKENZIE beaten favourite last time out in a Wexford handicap hurdle when finishing second of 13 beaten 1¾L over 2m just 10 days ago and can put the record straight here with Wexford third Masterchippy chasing him home. Emilyogue, Loch Luatha and Still Alive are all hard to fancy but the trio can battle for the minor honours.
