Forecasts

Red Infantry (9/4), Gibbes Bay (4/1), Nightline (5/1), Powerful Symbol (7/1), Heroes Or Ghosts (8/1), Cracked Rear View (17/2), Hey Bill (11/1), Simply The West (20/1)

Verdict

Powerful Symbol and Heroes Or Ghosts bring the best recent form over fences, but both look vulnerable to one of the chasing newcomers. Gibbes Bay and Hey Bill warrant respect, but CRACKED REAR VIEW is selected in the hope he is is straight enough after his lay-off. He was promising when last seen and may make a better chaser than hurdler.
  1. Cracked Rear View
  2. Heroes Or Ghosts
  3. Gibbes Bay
