Forecasts

San Hilario (8/11), Martin Plage (5/2), O'callaghan Can (12/1), Sampoet (14/1), Marcelrock (16/1), Ersudaly (20/1), Talladega (22/1), Spill A Drop (33/1), Soulful Strut (40/1), Secret Moon (66/1), Magical Sal (80/1), Hello Wee Love (80/1)

Verdict

SAN HILARIO sets the standard having finished runner-up 5 times last season and, having found things too competitive at Punchestown in April, can take advantage of this return to maiden company. Martin Plage is feared most having his first run for Willie Mullins, with Sampoet the pick of the remainder.

  1. SAN HILARIO (FR)
  2. MARTIN PLAGE (FR)
  3. SAMPOET (IRE)
