Forecasts
Lac Kivu (5/6), Robin Des Foret (4/1), Bhutan (4/1), Its All Guesswork (10/1), Oakly (12/1), Dorans River (20/1)
A quality contest in which Robin Des Foret sets the standard, though the fact that Ruby Walsh has chosen to ride stablemate LAC VIVU is an obvious pointer to the chances of the unexposed youngster who sluiced home emphatically at Punchestown on his debut. Fellow four-year-old Bhutan also looks an exciting prospect and could prove most troublesome.
