Forecasts

Law Ella (3/1), Presenting Doyen (10/3), Henning (9/2), Sainte Dona (5/1), Natural Look (11/2), Carrig Carol (11/1), Rebel Treaty (14/1), Soldaro (20/1), Battle Away (33/1), Morning Star (100/1), Lady Kate (125/1), Merrion Gate (200/1), Salt Bridge (200/1)

PRESENTING DOYEN matched her fairly useful hurdling form when an encouraging second at Ballinrobe on chasing debut and she's fancied to go on one better at the possible expense of Law Ella, who is of similar merit to the selection over the smaller obstacles. Natural Look can't be ruled out.
