Forecasts

Lifetime Ambition (4/6), Bugs Moran (7/4), West Cork Wildway (9/4), Early Doors (10/3), Lisleigh Lad (15/2), King Alex (18/1), Carrig Wells (25/1), Heroes Of Renown (80/1)

LIMETIME AMBITION landed this race last year and left the impression he really should have ended up closer (if not won) the Foxhunters' at Aintree 3 weeks ago given he finished with running left. He'll take plenty of stopping, with Early Doors and Bugs Moran perhaps left to fight it out for the places.
