Forecasts

Got Away (5/4), Antartica De Thaix (15/8), Lastbutnotleast (5/2)

Verdict

It doesn't take many runners to make a race tough for punters and this is a case in point. Antartica De Thaix has plenty of experience over fences and is proven at this level, although penalised as a result of her success. She is probably the one to beat if jumping clear, but LASTBUTNOTLEAST is less exposed and although she has a few pounds to find, she has bags of stamina and that is going to be needed here. She gets the marginal vote. Got Away has ability too and less weight to carry, so it wouldn't be a massive shock if she came home in front, though she has does have to prove she sees this out.
