Forecasts

Captain Chaos (8/11), Ozzy Thomas (6/5), Militarian (16/1), Trust Me I'm A Dr (100/1), The Society Man (100/1)

On paper this appears to be a shootout between the top two on the racecard. Ozzy Thomas has made good strides over fences this season, with a couple of wins and a decent second at Ludlow in October when last spotted. He is entitled to go well, though soft ground is a concern. CAPTAIN CHAOS lost his unbeaten chasing record in a Grade 2 novice event at Wetherby earlier this month, but should relish this small field and drop in class. Assuming he is fully recovered, he can get back on track by landing this contest for Team Skelton. The other three are carrying forlorn hopes, but a clean round can see Militarian home ahead of the limited pair The Society Man and Trust Me I'm A Dr.
