Forecasts

Half Past Tipsy (15/8), Small Doses (3/1), Ned In The Park (9/2), Lambay Island (11/2), Jordann (7/1), Beckistine (16/1), Bernie's Legacy (18/1), Catchabird (25/1), Scotch Street (33/1), Betty's Beaut (40/1), Thoughtsarethings (50/1), Liscahane United (66/1), Leading Endeavour (100/1), Theanniversary Man (125/1), Give Her Hollie (150/1)

BECKISTINE again failed to threaten in a bumper last time but he's the clear pick returned to this sphere. Indeed, he looked set to make a winning hurdles debut prior to falling at the last at Limerick in January. Small Doses appears to be getting the hang of things judged on his improved effort at Punchestown and he is preferred to Catchabird, Lambay Island and Ned In The Park for forecast purposes.
