Forecasts

Harald Hardrad (9/4), Brooklynn Glory (5/2), Meet And Greet (9/2), Marvel De Cerisy (7/1), Perceval Legallois (8/1), Arlo (14/1), Bravo Team (18/1), Asluckwouldhaveit (22/1), Onlyhuman (25/1), Advance (50/1), Getaway Milani (50/1), Topothelane (66/1), Kilcarthy Boy (66/1), Smooth Scotch (125/1), Barely Made It (150/1), Gonfalonier (200/1), Garcon Doux (200/1), Matts My Boy (200/1), A Dublin Job (200/1), Tyre Kicker (200/1), Homard De Chausey (200/1), Bothar Tara (200/1), Carbon King (250/1), Mooney Boy (250/1), Don't Talk (250/1), Ardfert Mary (250/1), Slate Range (250/1), Only One Plan (250/1)

HARALD HARDRAD showed a fairly useful level of form when runner-up on his hurdling bow at Navan so this bumper scorer is taken to go one better at the chief expense of Brooklynn Glory who also showed up very well on her first go in this sphere at Fairyhouse until taking a final-flight fall. Gordon Elliott's newcomer Bravo Team is worth looking out , especially if the market speaks in his favour.
