Forecasts

Another Stowaway (1/1), Coup De Pinceau (6/4), Imperial Eloquence (8/1), Tokaramore (12/1)

An interesting opener despite the lack of numbers. Tokamore remains promising but may find her southern rivals more streetwise, while Imperial Eloquence has not been able to translate his bumper form to hurdles so far. Coup De Pinceau should appreciate this better ground, but ANOTHER STOWAWAY looks the one to beat. His good second to a talented performer at Aintree two starts ago reads well and he should be able to take care of these rivals if all is well following a wind operation and the first-time tongue tie also helps.
