Forecasts

Bastien (10/11), Not Never (7/4), The Caller (9/2), Up The Navan Road (14/1), Work (16/1), Funny Oyster (66/1), Gentleman's Dream (100/1), Miss Joans (100/1), Ermyn's Edith (150/1)

Verdict

Alan King's BASTIEN is very much the one to beat here and a repeat of his Fontwell victory last time out should see him make it two from two over hurdles. WORK is interesting if connections have sharpened up her jumping and NOT NEVER commands plenty of respect for the Moores. 1. Bastien 2. Work 3. Not Never
