Forecasts

Fleur In The Park (11/10), Taponthego (9/5), Marcus Furius (4/1), Artic Lane (6/1), Omniscient (11/1), Stay Gold (28/1), Mellem (33/1), Duce Bigalow (125/1), Leinster King (200/1), Redondo Beach (200/1), Knock Flyer (200/1), Mackenstownsupreme (250/1), Lauro Lady (250/1)

MARCUS FURIUS holds much the best form on show so is taken to build on his Clonmel debut second and get off the mark. Hurdling newcomers Taponthego and Fleur In The Park could emerge as the main dangers to Paul Nolan's 5-y-o and can chase him home in that order.
