Forecasts

Tombstone (10/11), Calino D'Airy (10/3), Brelade (4/1), Woodland Opera (11/2), Inis Meain (16/1)

BRELADE can register his first victory over fences by taking this Grade 2 novices contest. The selection has bumped into a couple of potentially top class rivals thus far over fences and he can get the better of stablemate Tombstone who raced prominently when off the mark at the second time of asking at Down Royal a fortnight ago. Of their rivals today Calino D'airy is unbeaten in two starts over fences and can claim third on this occasion.
