Forecasts

Kitzbuhel (8/15), Shuffle The Deck (5/1), James's Gate (6/1), Sky Lord (13/2), Kaid D'authie (7/1), The Enabler (14/1), Where's My Jet (20/1), The Busy Fool (40/1), Along The Way (66/1), Goldinthemountains (80/1), Mywayofthinkin (100/1), Dont Tell Jack (100/1), Tell Us This (150/1), Journey So Far (250/1)

Verdict

Smart hurdler KITZBUHEL can make a winning start over fences for Willie Mullins, who has won the last 2 runnings of this with Gaelic Warrior and Ballyburn. The forecast spot might be filled by Shuffle The Deck, who quickly developed into a useful hurdler last season and a point background provides hope that he can do at least as well over fences. The selection's stablemate Kaid d'Authie is next on the list.
