Forecasts

Jameson (5/4), Keeper Hill (9/4), Westendorf (10/3), Bally Gilbert (10/1), An Siltean (10/1), Forecast (12/1), Skipthecuddles (33/1), Jaisalmer (66/1), Otter Moon (66/1), The Kings Writ (100/1), Keepin Time (100/1), Big Chip And Pin (100/1), Tikkinthebox (100/1), New Reaction (100/1), Solonng (100/1)

Verdict

Quite an open contest and market support is likely to be strong behind Ffos Las runner-up JAMESON for his leading connections. The extra yardage here should be in his favour and it gives a great chance to open his account at the second time of asking. Keeper Hill still has some work to do on his hurdling technique but should go well once more. Westendorf knows how to win while Forecast should benefit from the return to this venue where he was victorious over this trip in October. 1. Jameson 2. Forecast 3. Keeper Hill
