Forecasts

Icantsay (11/4), Market's Field (7/2), The Rite Article (5/1), Let's Twist Again (6/1), Wolfslair (8/1), King Blue (8/1), Caerleon Kate (12/1), Mr Mulliner (12/1), Empresario (20/1), Fleetwood Jack (20/1), Patricks Boy (50/1)

Verdict

MARKET'S FIELD a winner over fences last time can record his first hurdles success by taking this competitive handicap hurdle. The selection was well held on his latest hurdles start but was hampered on that occasion and can get the better of The Rite Article who has been in fine form on better ground in recent outings. Let's Twist Again put in a sound effort last time and is taken to claim third ahead of the mare Caerleon Kate.
  1. Market's Field
