Forecasts

Geordie Des Champs (7/4), Coastal Tiep (15/8), Captain Chaos (7/2), Clondaw Cian (11/2)

Verdict

Hard to rule out any of the four here with the field evenly split between those with chasing experience and those making their debut. Coastal Tiep might not be straightforward but he does look to have ability in this sphere and despite the penalty is expected to go close here. Both Captain Chaos and Clondaw Cian have underperformed last year although neither can be written off easily in this. GEORDIE DES CHAMPS makes his chasing debut here but he has shown a liking for this track over hurdles and on official ratings has the slight edge here and may be able to make a winning debut.
  1. Geordie Des Champs
  2. Coastal Tiep
  3. Captain Chaos
