Forecasts

Forgot To Ask (11/4), Doctor Haze (11/4), Arthington (3/1), Brianstorm (5/1), Glen Rocco (14/1), Silk Run (33/1), Radical Archie (33/1), Lord Marmaduke (50/1), Johnny Yuma (100/1)

Arthington has the pick of the public form going into this and would be far from a shock winner, but he gives 10lb and upwards to the field and that might make him vulnerable to an improver. That might be DOCTOR HAZE, who went well at Chepstow on his hurdling introduction and could step up on that this time. Forgot To Ask, Lord Marmaduke, Glen Rocco and Radical Archie are all potential improvers and a market check looks prudent to see who thinks theirs will find more of that today, while Brianstorm is also worth the same as a hurdles debutante likely to have a future.
