Forecasts

Richard Strauss (1/1), Thomas O'Malley (2/1), Make It Hurrah (5/1), Pronounced (9/1), Minnie Dahill (9/1), Sonic Wind (20/1), Little Princess (33/1), Masterstonemason (40/1), Silk King (40/1), Elusive John (66/1), Nobleman (66/1)

Based on their Flat performances and style of running, we could see Sonic Wind and Elusive John cutting out the running in the early stages here, with Nobleman and Richard Strauss next, the latter, promising third of 12 on hurdle debut in Cork 2m maiden, can be in the mix here with Thomas O'Malley and Make It Hurrah, thereabouts, but preference is for PRONOUNCED, who looks an interesting National Hunt recruit.
