Forecasts

Gabynako (11/10), Fakiera (15/8), Clondaw Bertie (7/2), Beagh Castle (10/1), Goaheadwiththeplan (11/1), Longacre Square (20/1), Itsnotinit (50/1), Mokhles (50/1), Karawaan (66/1), Emir De Rots (66/1), Mullaghmore Wave (66/1), That's Lifebuoy (200/1), Durity (200/1), Rockaway Beach (200/1), Highstreetfashion (200/1), Thegalwaygenius (200/1), Bard Of Eirn (200/1)

Having shaped with plenty of promise on last month's hurdles debut at Punchestown, GABYNAKO looks the way to go. He is open to improvement and can consign Fakiera to another second-place finish, a role he fulfilled on each of his 3 starts in this sphere last season. Best of the rest is point winner Clondaw Bertie, who made an encouraging start under Rules in September.
