Forecasts

Welcome Ben (4/1), Get Ready Freddy (4/1), Clan Chief (5/1), Tambour Major (6/1), Here Comes Love (8/1), Miss Joeking (10/1), The Pierre Lark (11/1), Fred Le Macon (12/1), Fire Rock (20/1)

Not a particularly solid bunch over fences with consistent profiles rather lacking and that may give GET READY FREDDY a chance to follow up his Taunton win as he looks to have some more improvement in him. The Pierre Lark generally travels well in his races but does have trouble finishing them off while there are question marks about Welcome Ben being able to repeat his Kelso win. Clan Chief is now off a basement mark but his jumping is clearly a problem while Tambour Major is capable of a big run if he settles better over the minimum trip.
