Forecasts

Zipple Back (9/4), Lough Derg Farmer (5/2), Tree Of Liberty (7/2), Wind Place And Sho (5/1), Hubertas (8/1), Minella Style (8/1), Duncomplaining (28/1), Schnabel (100/1), Herdswick Holloa (125/1), Bertha Burnett (250/1), High Wheeler (250/1), Sound The Bugle (300/1)

Verdict

Fairly competitive in terms of numbers, but not really in terms of those with chances. Whilst Wind Place And Sho has shown a decent level of form on the Flat, the more obvious winners are Lough Derg Farmer and TREE OF LIBERTY. Whilst Nicky Henderson's horse is probably the best long term prospect and promises to be suited by this more galloping track than Warwick (despite dropping back slightly in trip), Tree of Liberty is marginally preferred today having run well on hurdles debut behind a much more experienced rival last time at Kelso. 1. Tree Of Liberty 2. Lough Derg Farmer 3. Wind Place And Sho
