Forecasts

Verdict

The champion trainer looks to have found an ideal spot for BRAHMS DE CLERMONT to begin his career over hurdles. He holds some of his rivals on known bumper form and will be expected to open his account. The Nigel Twiston-Davies-trained Woodfort was no match for the selection at Cheltenham but can close the gap here. Harry Fry's Melrose Bay is another one worth keeping an eye on. 1. Brahms De Clermont 2. Woodfort 3. Melrose Boy
