Forecasts

Petapenko (10/3), Oak Vintage (4/1), Betancourt (5/1), Misfits (11/2), Leading Score (15/2), Blakerigg (15/2), Oh So Gigolo (10/1), Toola Boola (25/1), Mr Witmore (40/1), Here Comes Love (40/1)

Verdict

Although BETANCOURT drops back in trip here he may still have enough toe to win this on his chasing debut. Blakerigg is a potential improver now that he tackles fences, while Petapenko is an interesting contender now going chasing after a lengthy absence and a market check looks prudent. Misfits and Oak Vintage are others to consider.
