Forecasts

Soviet Pimpernel (2/1), Off You Go (2/1), Francois (7/2), Wolf Prince (7/1), Pipers Meadow (10/1), Billable Grant (33/1)

This looks to rest between OFF YOU GO and Soviet Pimpernel on form and preference is for Charles Byrnes' useful hurdler who comes here on the back of a good Killarney second. Gordon Elliott's new recruit is highly respected though, with the returning Pipers Meadow appealing as the pick of the remainder.
