Forecasts

El Fabiolo (11/10), Jonbon (2/1), Dysart Dynamo (5/1), Saint Roi (11/1), Hollow Games (28/1), Straw Fan Jack (50/1), Ha D'Or (66/1), Effernock Fizz (125/1), Ballybreeze (150/1)

Verdict

EL FABIOLO and Jonbon (won) were separated by only a neck in a Grade 1 novice hurdle at Aintree last spring. The former's comfortable defeat of Banbridge at Leopardstown last month is narrowly the best piece of 2m novice chase form this season so he's taken to edge out Nicky Henderson's charge this time. Saint Roi gets the vote for third.
