Forecasts

Plato's Kode (6/4), Thounder (2/1), Hernandes (7/1), First Up (15/2), Jumping Jack (12/1), Casaclare (22/1), Geophony (25/1), Bizet (66/1), Charlie Chaplin (80/1)

Verdict

Not a massive amount of obvious strength in depth for the opening race of the season at Huntingdon, so perhaps the doubly penalised Plato's Kode will be capable of notching a third straight success over hurdles. The majority of those switching to hurdles from the Flat for the first time don't make masses of appeal, but support for either Casaclare or First Up is probably worthy of note. However, whilst it is difficult to evaluate the actual worth of his Nantes form, a very tentative vote goes to the Gary Moore trained THOUNDER.
  1. Thounder
  2. Plato's Kode
  3. First Up
