Forecasts

Kings Keeper (1/1), Benbulben Boy (10/3), April's Moon (10/3), Rocky's Howya (8/1), Game And Glory (8/1), Teescomponentsyess (28/1), Dylan Lombardy (50/1), Irish Agent (66/1)

This is likely to be fought out by KINGS KEEPER and Benbulden Boy, who both represent top stables and recorded encouraging debuts recently. Preference is for the former, who was strong in the betting prior to an excellent second in a maiden hurdle at Limerick and should have the requisite pace for this discipline. April's Moon is the pick of the remainder.
