Forecasts
Ambassadorial (6/4), War Secretary (5/2), Intelligence Cross (3/1), Noivado (8/1), Holistic Approach (12/1), Hit The Bid (14/1)
Two representatives here from the Ballydoyle team, with preference for INTELLIGENCE CROSS on what he's achieved so far. He's a Group 3 winner over 6f and was anything but disgraced at the top level in the Middle Park on his final start last season. War Secretary meanwhile showed marked improvement on his second outing to score in a maiden over this C&D in October and should be capable of a few forwards steps this term. Ambassadorial is two from two here but will have to up his game to maintain that record while Holistic Approach is also one to wary of if forgiven a flop at Leopardstown in the autumn.
