Forecasts

New Year Honours (11/8), Fermoyle (9/4), Scott Lang (4/1), Bukhill (9/1), Laishann (18/1), Woodie Wango (22/1), Oneforgonzo (28/1), Kilkee Royal (33/1), Hob's Angel (33/1), Ceis Charraigin (33/1), Black Barrel (33/1), Bonilla (66/1), Rushford (66/1), Caminante (100/1), Beanie To Sea (150/1), Kalsman (200/1), My Kurkum (200/1), Golden Forest (200/1), Hi Sur Multi (250/1)

Not so competitive as the numbers suggest and SCOTT LANG, who comes here in good order from the Flat, is fancied to belatedly build on his hurdling debut promise and open his account in this sphere. New Year Honours is second on the list and would rate a serious threat if back to her best. Hurdling-debutant Fermoyle appeals as the pick of the remainder for place purposes.
