Forecasts

Master Sunrise (7/4), Brody Bleu (11/4), Rye Cross (4/1), Connies Cross (6/1), Invisible Man (7/1), Well Mett (16/1), Dr Anubis (66/1)

Verdict

Brody Bleu has shaped well in a couple of hunter chases this term over inadequate trips and his third to Monsieur Gibraltar is a solid effort. Invisible Man has been in good form between the flags of late and, although his hunter chase form gives him something to find, he ought to be more of a threat over this trip and now that he is dropped in grade. WELL METT finished third in a hotter renewal of this 12 months ago. He arrives having won two of his four starts in point-to-points and dropping in class. He was behind Master Sunrise at Cheltenham last time but made a bad mistake early and was never competitive thereafter. These easier fences and flatter course will be to his advantage.
  1. Well Mett
