Forecasts

Pride Of Place (16/5), Easy Bucks (4/1), Hees Dynamite (5/1), Meehall (6/1), Dorans Law (15/2), Decimation (8/1), Jasmin De Cotte (17/2), Backmersackme (10/1), Caesar Rock (14/1), Lonesome Boatman (16/1), On The Tide (16/1), Hascoeur Clermont (18/1), Battle Of Mirbat (25/1)

Although HEES DYNAMITE was raised 11 lb for last month's Killarney success he remains well treated on hurdle exploits and should take a bit of stopping again if taking up this engagement. Pride of Place chased home the selection at Killarney and can give him most to do again. British raider Easy Bucks may prove best of the remainder.
