Forecasts

Young Churchill (6/5), Astelia (2/1), Speedy Box (5/1), Seeitoldya (6/1), Tudorista (11/1), Lord Ffrench (11/1), Fine Print (14/1), October Hill (20/1), Gypsy Poet (25/1), Little Boy Sivola (28/1), Lady Maxios (33/1), River Derwent (33/1), Prince Inger (50/1), Isthatrightkatie (50/1), Goonyaboyya (50/1), Bella Colombia (66/1), Belle Of Boston (125/1), Move It On Over (150/1), Rosie Brown (200/1)

ASTELIA shaped well hurdling for her new yard when runner-up in a big field at Listowel last month and can build on it to get off the mark here. Speedy Box is next on the list on the back of an encouraging Punchestown fifth, with form pick Young Churchill also well in the mix.
