Forecasts

Monbeg Legend (11/8), Poetic Rhythm (2/1), Master Tommytucker (4/1), Spiritofthegames (7/1), Lisdoonvarna Lad (14/1)

Only five runners, but a crackerjack contest in which the ultra-consistent Monbeg Legend will be aiming to make his chasing experience count. However, he faces some seriously-interesting chasing debutants, most notably Poetic Rhythm and SPIRITOFTHEGAMES. with marginal preferene for the latter after some fine efforts in major handicaps last season. Master Tommytucker is unexposed and could be anything, but Lisdoonvarna Lad may find this opposition too hot.
