Forecasts

Westport Cove (85/40), Gale Mahler (5/1), Pied Piper (5/1), Gold Dancer (7/1), Birdie Or Bust (15/2), Intellotto (11/1), Special Cadeau (14/1), Itsalladream (16/1), Runcok (22/1), Fine Margin (25/1), Belle The Lioness (66/1)

Verdict

SPECIAL CADEAU has quickly made up into a better chaser than hurdler, successful on first start over fences and resuming his progress when runner-up to the smart Nurburgring at Killarney 13 days ago. He could be ready to get back to winning ways, though Westport Cove isn't taken lightly for his leading yard, with Gale Mahler also an interesting contender.
