Forecasts

Fairlee Grey (10/11), Loose Ends (9/4), Parish Boy (8/1), Chapel Stile (10/1), Craiganboy (12/1), Bering Upsun (16/1), The Wise One (25/1), Petite Ganache (40/1), Glingerside (50/1), Ceegem (50/1)

Verdict

Gordon Elliott's runners here are always to be respected and his LOOSE ENDS showed enough on debut to suggest he may well prove good enough to get off the mark over hurdles at just the second time of asking. If Parish Boy retains any ability this listed Flat winner would be a big danger, but he may well have physical issues that might limit his potential. A bigger player may well be Chapel Stile, one of two in the race for Nicky Richards (the other is Petite Ganache). He showed signs of ability on his debut and could be an improver. 1. Loose Ends 2. Chapel Stile 3. Parish Boy
