Forecasts

Morepowertoya (10/3), Must Be Dreaming (9/2), Wee Charlie (11/2), The Niffler (13/2), Red Glory (13/2), Someone's Wish (10/1), Diamond Dollar (11/1), Aussie Warrior (14/1), Champagne Saloon (20/1), Simply Shabra (20/1), Sayitfirst (20/1), Tomas O Maille (22/1), Deep Pockets (22/1), Donnrua Dream (25/1), Kalaroun (28/1), Sovereign Duke (33/1), Let's Avit (33/1), Beggars Rock (50/1)

RED GLORY is taken to build on his Naas handicap hurdle debut third and strike for the Henry de Bromhead/Rachael Blackmore combination. The Niffler arrives at the top of his game and is feared most ahead of last month's C&D scorer Morepowertoya.
