Forecasts

Irish Envoy (3/1), Katie Tay (4/1), Queen Jane (11/2), O'hallorans Castle (15/2), Camino Rock (8/1), Ideal De Ciergues (9/1), Sweet Magic (9/1), Sycamore Grey (10/1), Everystep Oftheway (12/1), Green Glory (14/1), Roccovango (16/1), Forest Pump (16/1), Nights Of Doyen (25/1), Trent Lane (33/1), Barnwick (40/1)

The market will no doubt be informative with several newcomers on show. However QUEEN JANE showed some ability when finishing a remote third on her hurdling debut and Henry de Bromhead's charge gets the tentative vote to make her first start in bumpers a winning one. Katie Tay, Ideal de Ciergues and Green Glory are just a trio of newcomers who could have a say in proceedings.
