Forecasts

Wee Tiger (5/4), Shanklys Dawn (5/2), Peacocks Secret (4/1), Sizing Rome (5/1), Invincible Don (8/1), Ardview Boy (10/1), Stonehall Jack (12/1), Doolough Lad (20/1), Coldstonesober (25/1)

This trip is much more suitable for Ardview Boy and he can get back to form here. Shanklys Dawn was a good winner at Wexford last time and has claims of following up off this 8lb higher mark. WEE TIGER has been running consistently well over hurdles of late and will be a danger to all if his jumping holds up back over fences.
