Forecasts

Loch Ba (1/2), Wicklow Lad (5/2), Wind Of Hope (7/1), Oscar Lateen (25/1), Senor Alco (66/1)

Verdict

LOCH BA can follow up his easy Wincanton success by taking a second hunter chase of the season. The selection had this pilot on board on that occasion and is taken to get the better of the veteran Wicklow Lad who regularly runs well in these events and Wind Of Hope who was successful last time out.

  2. Wicklow Lad
  3. Wind Of Hope
