Forecasts

Bold Getaway (6/5), Diamondinthemud (3/1), Harald Hardrad (10/3), Youralwaysdreamin (9/1), Time Gents (12/1), Grow As You Go (28/1), Ballykeeran (250/1)

BOLD GETAWAY shaped with encouragement in a very hot maiden hurdle at Leopardstown 10 months ago, and although he's not been seen since, he has to be of major interest returning in an ordinary-looking bumper. Diamondinthemud sets the standard in this sphere and is a big threat, while newcomer Harald Hardrad is worth a market check.
