Forecasts

Danny Power (11/8), Sea Of Dubka (2/1), Kenough (10/3), Bell Ex Too (6/1), Contador (14/1), Dunmore (150/1), Mahzuz (250/1), Julie's Moon (250/1), Palace Tyne (250/1)

Verdict

DANNY POWER looked a good prospect when making an impressive start at Listowel last month and can defy a penalty before having his sights raised. Contador is an interesting recruit from France for Gordon Elliott and could be the danger, ahead of Sea of Dubka, who took to hurdling well at Killarney for all she was a fortunate winner.

  1. DANNY POWER (IRE)
