Forecasts

Redemption Day (8/11), Music Drive (9/4), Bravo Team (15/2), Tag Man (11/1), Saint Rhue (33/1), Healthisyourwealth (33/1), Into The Sunset (125/1)

Willie Mullins saddled the winner of this last year and fields an appealing candidate in REDEMPTION DAY, who ticks plenty of the right boxes on paper. It will look significant if the market speaks in his favour. Point winner Music Drive looks the pick of the Gordon Elliott-trained pair and is second choice, but there's substance to Tag Man's form between the flags and he also merits respect.
