Forecasts

Chain Of Beacons (5/2), Fields of Glory (4/1), Pekanheim (11/2), Quito Du Tresor (7/1), Chestnut Ben (8/1), Apachee Prince (8/1), Tambour Major (14/1), Civil Unrest (20/1), Safari Journey (40/1)

Verdict

Civil Unrest won off this mark at Hexham a few starts to go. He has disappointed over hurdles since but should run a big race now switched back to the large obstacles. Preference, though, is for CHAIN OF BEACONS, a 13-race maiden but who has come close on a number of occasions and is taken to get his nose in front for the first time. Multiple C&D winner Qulto Du Tresor can give them most to think about stepping down in class. 1. Chain Of Beacons 2. Civil Unrest 3. Quito Du Tresor
