Forecasts

Sparkling Wit (6/4), Too Hot To Trot (2/1), Muckanagh Lough (3/1), Double Dare (10/1), Little Ginger (20/1), Big Boy Dan (28/1), Ruled By The Sun (33/1), Suresuresure (125/1), Cloghoula More (250/1)

Verdict

SPARKLING WIT stands out on paper being a brother to connections' smart hurdler/top-class chaser Gaelic Warrior, so he's a straightforward choice to come out on top before market clues. Muckanagh Lough has the best form on offer courtesy of his runner-up effort at Leopardstown (for Brian M. McMahon) in December, while Too Hot To Trot is another interesting Rules newcomer having joined a top stable after finishing second on his only outing in points.
