Forecasts

Hercule Du Seuil (8/13), Roseys Hollow (10/3), Senecia (13/2), Hamundarson (8/1), Changing The Rules (14/1), Look Dont Touch (50/1), Vocito (50/1), Lucky Number (50/1), Rumi (50/1), Natural Ability (150/1), Hutchie (200/1)

HAMUNDARSON made an encouraging debut in this sphere after 14 months off when runner-up at Leopardstown just over 8 weeks ago, and with further progress on the cards, Gordon Elliott's charge can open his account second time up. Hercule du Seuil has enjoyed a fine season over hurdles so he may emerge as the main danger on chasing debut, with Roseys Hollow third on the shortlist.
