Forecasts

King Of Kingsfield (8/11), Slade Steel (10/3), Icare Desbois (7/2), Gorgeous Tom (14/1), Musta Lovea Lovea (16/1), Talk In The Park (16/1), Syracus Du Houx (25/1), Built By Ballymore (25/1), New York Style (33/1), Burru (100/1), Just Three (100/1), Glenriver (100/1), King Kali (150/1), Catch The Beast (200/1), Folly Master (200/1), Downtheoldbogroad (250/1), Klassman (250/1), Ca Plane Pour Moi (300/1), Schiehallion (300/1), Cedarmount (300/1), Who's In Midfield (300/1), Iris Sacre (300/1)

KING OF KINGSFIELD showed useful form in bumpers (placed in the Grade 1 at Punchestown in April) and made an encouraging debut in this sphere when second at Fairyhouse on return 6 weeks ago, unlucky to bump into another good prospect but well clear of the rest, and he sets the bar pretty high here. Useful bumper winners Slade Steel and Icare Desbois are obvious threats going hurdling for the first time.
