Forecasts

Maroto (6/5), Lady Bresil (5/4), Walmix (6/1), Zulu Mike (10/1), Slip Jig (14/1), Lynchy Boy (80/1), Jassur Des Brosses (80/1), Strawberry Diamond (80/1), Red Night Sky (100/1), Glasgow Dan (125/1), Princess Felicia (125/1), Deise Bhoy (150/1), A Okay (200/1), Darcy's Friend (200/1), Springboard (200/1), Harveyshonor (200/1), Bondi Boy Blue (250/1), Lacken Run (300/1)

MAROTO would likely have been placed but for departing late at Punchestown and looks capable of better again for her top stable. Lady Bresil has switched to Henry de Bromhead since her Navan hurdle debut fourth just before Christmas and looks the obvious danger ahead Walmix.
