Forecasts

Fantasio D'alene (30/100), Mahler Allstar (7/2), Pure Genius (4/1), Sean Hogan (9/1), Command Chain (12/1), Johngus (12/1), The Cool Dude (125/1), Two Robins (150/1), Nothinbuttime (200/1)

This step up in trip should suit MAHLER ALLSTAR, who made a promising start over hurdles when third in a big-field Leopardstown novice and he is open to plenty of improvement. Fantasio D'alene, a bumper winner here last season, also shaped like a ready-made future winner when runner-up on his first run in this sphere at Naas. He is the clear main danger ahead of Pure Genius and Sean Hogan.
