Forecasts

Mont Choisy (5/4), Tawseef (9/4), Miss Mobot (4/1), Welsh Bard (6/1)

James Bowen has been making a major impression in the National Hunt ranks of late, and he steered MONT CHOISY to a clear-cut 6L victory at Newton Abbot last month. This former Nigel Twiston-Davies trained inmate has steadily progressed with each start for his new connections, and looks capable of registering a fifth career success with the first time blinkers applied.
