Forecasts

Captain Buck's (5/6), Dadsintrouble (10/3), Geordie Des Champs (4/1), Matorico (8/1)

CAPTAIN BUCK'S has run well on both starts over fences so far, including over this C&D. He travelled like the best horse on Boxing Day at Wincanton and was just edged out. He's on good terms coming back here with his rider's claim and can register his first success over these obstacles. Geordie Des Champs was sent off favourite at Aintree on his chase bow in November but didn't jump well enough. He'll surely have brushed up on his technique at home and could be a different proposition now. Matorico should find this contest easier than his last race while Dadsintrouble has plenty improvement to find seemingly.
