Forecasts

Menindee (11/4), Nuttorridge (11/2), Ardaghs Choice (7/1), Lessofdnegativity (7/1), Lighthouse Rose (15/2), Famous Escape (9/1), Nabraska (11/1), Basil's Boy (12/1), Krujers Girl (14/1), Movie King (16/1), Born Famous (22/1)

MENINDEE has been in good form over hurdles in recent months and she is taken to make a winning start in this sphere. Ardaghs Choice finally got his head in front when scoring at Wexford recently, but he looks vulnerable up 7 lb and and bigger threats may be posed by Krujers Girl and Nuttorridge.
