Forecasts

The Wicket Chicken (10/11), Welluptoscratch (3/1), Be Daring (4/1), Seven Nation Army (8/1), Keepyourheadup (66/1)

Seven Nation Army is the pick of those with hurdling form and a BHA rating of 107 sets a modest standard. Neil Mulholland had a treble on this card last year and THE WICKET CHICKEN ought to be good enough to take this on her hurdling bow. She had the recent Warwick winner Rebel Yeats behind in second when landing a point-to-point and she won an above average Hexham bumper in good style last time.
