Forecasts

One Of Us (9/2), Reilly's Minor (5/1), Bulfin Island (5/1), Lee Side Lady (7/1), Whatthebutlersaw (8/1), Heath Hunter (11/1), Serpico (12/1), Visandi (12/1), Viking Mistress (12/1), Tudors Treasure (14/1), Virtuose Du Gouet (16/1), Threebarmymen (16/1), Pattara (16/1), Free Stone Hill (20/1), Coeur Tantre (20/1), Ain't No Limits (20/1), Hahnenkam (20/1), The Mad Well (33/1), Ermyn's Emerald (40/1), Bertie Barnes (66/1)

Verdict

This is as cometitive as the huge field suggests. Reilly's Minor failed to stay 3m1f when a beaten favourite at Catterick last time and has to be of interest now dropped back in trip. Lee Side Lady has been running well this season and is another with each-way claims, comments that also apply to Whatthebutlersaw and Bulfin Island. Ermyn's Emerald has caught the eye in novice hurdles but preference is for another handicap newcomer, ONE OF US who operated at a decent level in bumpers. 1. One Of Us 2. Ermyn's Emerald 3. Whatthebutlersaw
