Forecasts

Barney Stinson (13/8), Patience Patience (7/2), Christmas Jumper (11/2), Portion Control (9/1), Appian Way (12/1), Glen Robin (12/1), Genois (14/1), Irish Art (18/1), Thegranaghman (20/1), Jesina (20/1), Cratloe (28/1), Pats Gift (33/1), Loup De Tallane (40/1), Hammer To Fall (40/1), Frambosin Boy (66/1), Globetrottersivola (125/1), It's All Mercy (125/1), Ximyerg (250/1)

Not a strong-looking maiden and €105,000 purchase BARNEY STINSON could be able to make a successful start for Mouse Morris. Several of his relatives were fairly early winners over hurdles and the booking of the in-form Rachael Blackmore looks ominous. Patience Patience showed a bit on his hurdles debut in December and could progress. Portion Control is another interesting newcomer.
