Forecasts

Jo's Secret (8/11), Riviera Walk (4/1), Flying Pimpernel (9/2), I C U In My Dreams (5/1), Four Decades (13/2), Alibey (16/1), Fitzroy Gardens (80/1), Just A Poet (80/1), Melosa (500/1)

The market should prove highly informative here but the vote goes to Donald McCain's Irish point winner I C U IN MY DREAMS who is taken to go in at the first time of asking in this sphere. Fellow hurdling debutante Jo's Secret represents the shrewd Tony Martin yard and also rates an interesting prospect, while Riviera Walk has the form to play a big part too. Flying Pimpernel and Four Decades are others who need considering in this intriguing maiden.
