Forecasts

Kings Hill (4/1), Icare Desbois (5/1), Fascile Mode (11/2), Mighty Tom (15/2), Miss Gherkin (8/1), Senecia (8/1), Miss Fourie (17/2), Set Point (10/1), Je T'ai Porte (11/1), Gone For Tea (20/1), Indiana Jones (22/1)

JE T'AI PORTE has plenty of scope from this mark judged on her improved chase form this summer and can strike for Gavin Cromwell. Mighty Tom and Kings Hill should both find this easier than the Galway Hurdle and can give the selection most to do.
