Forecasts

Zero Ten (15/8), Vultan (5/2), St Clerans (6/1), Hidden Land (13/2), Greenpanda (9/1), Gee Rex (10/1), Druk (10/1), Maricruz (11/1)

A smart performer on the National Hunt scene, ZERO TEN stepped on his debut in this sphere when landing a big-field Galway maiden in good style. There may well be more to come from this 8-y-o now that he makes the switch to handicap company. Hidden Land will be a threat if she puts her best forward, while St Clerans, who battled well when scoring at Ballinrobe last time, is also accorded respect.
