Forecasts

Flame Bearer (4/6), Ha D'Or (2/1), Hollow Games (9/4), Indiana Jones (15/2), Barnacullia (20/1)

Though a return to 2½m+ would probably be ideal, HOLLOW GAMES showed enough zip when landing a 17f maiden on his chase debut here in November to suggest that there should be no real harm in dropping back to the minimum trip. He found Grade 1 company too much at Leopardstown last time but this is not so demanding. Flame Bearer also drops back in class and is second choice ahead of stablemate Ha D'or.
