Forecasts

Haxo (2/1), Walnut Beach (9/4), Nonbinding (9/4), Irish Blaze (5/1), Reserve Judgement (8/1), Miss Pronunciation (11/1), Allbetsoff (14/1), Viceregent (16/1), Be Fierce (18/1), Botanic Ridge (28/1), Kaytana (33/1), Ucandoit (66/1), Garcon Doux (125/1), Rose Of Borris (125/1), Lilian Bland (125/1), Bal Kauto (150/1), Topothelane (150/1), Rathnageeragh (200/1), Cocovango (250/1)

Verdict

The market will help shape this race given the many unknown quantities, with HAXO tentatively offered to make a winning hurdles debut for Willie Mullins. Nonbinding should make an impact given his bumper form while Walnut Beach already looks better as a hurdler than he did on the level.
