I'll Be Your Clown (1/7), Bellamy (1/1), Bricbracsmate (7/1), Its Pandorama (14/1), Shulammite Man (14/1), Greenworldsolution (16/1), Rossington (25/1)

With rain forecast, it'll pay to keep a close eye on the weather situation, but this opening Novices Hurdles appears to effectively be a match. I'll Be Your Clown was shrewdly purchased from Ireland by Dan Skelton and made an immediate impression when scoring at the first time of asking at Stratford. However, the form of BELLAMY from Wincanton appears slightly stronger (well beaten third has won since), and with little between the pair on official ratings, the Neil Mulholland trained gelding can make the most of the 7lb he receives from the penalised I'll Be Your Clown.
