Forecasts

Wait For Me (5/1), Thomas Campbell (5/1), Limited Reserve (6/1), Stowaway Magic (10/1), Chelsea Flyer (10/1), Duke Street (10/1), Silverhow (12/1), Novalis (12/1), Kings Walk (16/1), Black Corton (16/1), Valhalla (16/1), Tree Of Liberty (16/1), Pilansberg (20/1), Curious Carlos (25/1), Oscar Hoof (25/1), Little Jon (33/1)

Verdict

Nicky Henderson can have the last laugh on a card loaded with his and his main rival Paul NIcholls' runners with STOWAWAY MAGIC, who won is latest start (from stablemate Oscar Hoof, who also has chances here) with ease and can defy the handicapper again. Tree Of Liberty is lightly raced and his form stands up to scrutiny. If he's as happy here as Musselburgh he'd have a good chance. Thomas Campbell is consistent and can swell the Henderson coffers further by hitting the frame again.
