Forecasts

Daytime Ahead (9/2), Scrumpy Boy (9/2), Somerset Jem (5/1), Without Frontier (6/1), Cotswold Road (6/1), Kentford Myth (9/1), Prince Mahler (11/1), Ermyn's Emerald (12/1), Calculated Risk (20/1), Breaking Ground (22/1), Karl Marx (25/1), Richardofdoccombe (40/1), Gaelic Flow (40/1), Bahumbug (66/1)

Verdict

Not the strongest of contests and one which presents WITHOUT FRONTIER with a good chance of getting off the mark over hurdles. He would not need to improve much on his seasonal reappearance display and the presence of the champion jockey on board only enhances his prospects. Calculated Risk has dropped to a lenient mark and could figure, while others to consider are Kentford Myth, Ermyn's Emerald and Daytime Ahead.
  1. Without Frontier
  2. Daytime Ahead
  3. Calculated Risk
