Forecasts
Leader Des Bordes (2/1), Maith An Buachaill (11/2), Santo Sospir (11/2), Laguna Beach (9/1), Thiscouldbetheone (11/1), If You Believe (11/1), Seabloom (11/1), Green Hint (12/1), Brosna Shine (12/1), Wonderful Everyday (16/1), Green Style (16/1), Lincall (18/1), Reckless (33/1), Lejolicoeur Du Mou (33/1), Mullaghgloss (40/1), So You Know (40/1), Green Chef (40/1), Thirsty Work (66/1), Brother Walfrid (66/1), Cluain Chormaic (100/1)
A typical make-up for the latest renewal of this long-standing and valuable sales bumper, most having their first outing, with LEADER DES BORDES making the most appeal on paper for Willie Mullins. Laguna Beach is a likely type for Nicky Henderson, while Santo Sospir is entitled to improve on his C&D victory 2 months ago.
