Forecasts

Pakens Rock (11/4), Anything Will Do (3/1), Drop The Anchor (10/3), Dumhach Thra (4/1), Shadow Seven (6/1), Aim For Glory (10/1), Bua Boy (10/1), Think Positive (12/1), Lignou (25/1)

Not one of these runners can be completely ruled out but in a tricky contest where seven of the nine have won once over hurdles it is ANYTHING WILL DO who gets the vote having won on debut at Listowel despite rather than because of his jumping. If he can brush that up he ought to improve plenty and at this early stage of his career he should have a bright future ahead. Recent C&D handicap winner Dumhach Thra looks sure to make a bold bid with his course form rock-solid and a lot better is now expected of Tu Va maiden Lignou.
