Forecasts

Bhean Saibhre (10/3), Maxwell Smart (10/3), Arcland (10/3), Waystar (8/1), Highland Bells (10/1), Daymer Bay (12/1), Gallo Dell Cielo (12/1), Sopelana (16/1), Celtic Druid (16/1), You Make Me Smile (18/1), Idomything (20/1), Viceregent (25/1), No Memory (28/1), Portmagee (50/1), Bella Boyne (50/1)

Recent hurdles winners ARCLAND and Sopelana can come to the fore back in this sphere, with preference for the former who has not finished out of the first two in four starts on the Flat this year. Conversely, Sopelana failed to shine in seven appearances on the level for George Scott, but she has improved over hurdles for her new yard of late and will be a threat if able to translate that improved back to this sphere with Colin Keane booked. You Make Me Smile is third choice.
