Forecasts

Landmarque (9/4), Mister Don (4/1), Apache Pilot (11/2), Benefit In Kind (6/1), Shine A Diamond (7/1), Boss In Boots (11/1), Top Cat Dj (20/1), Toreador (25/1), Valentino's Choice (66/1)

Verdict

This looks likely to come down to those higher in the weights, including Landmarque, who won here over hurdles last time out and could have more to offer at a course where he has shown plenty of ability, and Boss In Boots, who often disappoints in the winter before going on to bigger and better things during a spring campaign. Preference though is for promising novice MISTER DON, who can come on from a disappointing couple of runs to make it a third win over fences. 1. Mister Don 2. Boss In Boots 3. Landmarque
