Forecasts

Verdict

MISS BENEFITZ could be the answer to a poor contest if she consents to settle. Her form in Ireland suggests the forecast ground should suit and her third in a Leicester handicap hurdle gives her every chance at this level. Taurian is likely to be popular with punters given his respected trainer/jockey combination, while Berry De Carjac can make his presence felt.
