Forecasts

Zileo (4/1), Charlie Luciano (9/2), Sea Oscar (5/1), Extensio (6/1), Belgoprince (13/2), Reflectionist (8/1), Red Vermillion (17/2), Art Of Silence (10/1), Beautiful Chaos (16/1), Abraham (28/1), Oranmore (33/1), Boola Boola (33/1), Mephisto (40/1), Manwal (40/1), Limited Edition (50/1)

It's been a while since REFLECTIONIST was last seen out in this sphere, but he resumes on a potentially very handy mark and has been in fine form over hurdles since switching to the Gavin Cromwell yard during ths pring. The selection may have most to fear from Sea Oscar, who remains a maiden following 16 attempts but she will be a player if reproducing the form of her latest effort at Tipperary. Extensio and Charlie Luciano are others to consider.
