Forecasts

Arcadian Emperor (7/4), Generous Risk (2/1), Beechwood Road (3/1), Brother Bernard (8/1), Diamond Kal (9/1), Barnahash Mason (11/1), Isdistheone (33/1), Muckanagh Lough (50/1), La Rocca Lass (66/1), Northernlightsky (150/1)

Verdict

ARCADIAN EMPEROR saw off a subsequent novice hurdle winner when landing his point in March and is likely the one to beat, with confidence in his chance increased should the betting vibes be strong. Gordon Elliott's Generous Risk is the obvious danger.

  1. ARCADIAN EMPEROR (FR)
  2. GENEROUS RISK (FR)
  3. BEECHWOOD ROAD
