Forecasts

Sir Chauvelin (6/4), Amour de Nuit (13/8), Dear Sire (13/2), Crackdeloust (8/1), Forth Bridge (12/1)

Verdict

Dear Sire and Crackdeloust look to have plenty to do at the weights and Forth Bridge needs to regain his best form to figure, so this could develop into a duel between Amour De Nuit and SIR CHAUVELIN. The selection is lightly raced over hurdles, may have more to offer and can take care of the former, who pulled quite hard last time and may do better in a bigger field off a strong pace.
  1. Sir Chauvelin
  2. Amour de Nuit
  3. Crackdeloust
