Forecasts
Faugheen (2/11), Cilaos Emery (6/1), Campeador (12/1), Mick Jazz (14/1), The Game Changer (33/1)
A race that revolves around the well -being on return of FAUGHEEN following a facile victory on first start for over a year when beating three rivals last month. If returning in the same form the 2015 champion hurdler should land this with ease. Gordon Elliott with three runners and Cilaos Emery stablemate of the favourite make up the opposition.
