Forecasts

I Am Maximus (10/11), Gentlemansgame (2/1), Grand Roi (15/2), Largy Debut (14/1), Freedom To Dream (18/1), Decimation (22/1)

Willie Mullins' new recruit I AM MAXIMUS failed only narrowly to make a winning chasing debut at Fairyhouse but is fancied to build on it and go one better now at the chief expense of Grand Roi, who can get back on track having fallen at the same track last time out. Fencing newcomers Gentlemansgame and Decimation need considering too in an intriguing contest.
