Forecasts

Bigmartre (13/8), Mad Jack Mytton (15/8), Mick Thonic (4/1), The Gipper (8/1), Darebin (14/1)

Verdict

One or two of these could turn out to be better than their already very respectable hurdles form and BIGMARTRE is the one to get the nod on this occasion. Admittedly he has no prior experience, but he is sure to be well prepared and may have more scope than obvious dangers Mad Jack Mytton and Mick Thonic, each of whom has already won a chase. The Gipper should also be capable of improvement.
  1. Bigmartre
