Forecasts

Frodon (4/9), Holly Bush Henry (4/1), Apterix (9/2), Daydream Island (200/1)

Verdict

A much different test for FRODON to those that he has faced more recently, but on the basis of that very strong winning form in the Caspian Caviar Handicap Chase at Cheltenham in December, he looks a different class to these rivals on paper. Assuming his confidence hasn't been negatively affected by that mishap in the Kauto Star Novices Chase at Kempton on Boxing Day, it will be a major surprise if he doesn't notch up another chasing victory against today.. 1. Frodon 2. Apterix 3. Holly Bush Henry
