Forecasts

One For Harry (13/8), Bulls Head (7/4), Strong Economy (9/2), Notwhatiam (11/2)

Verdict

BULLS HEAD very much caught the eye last time out when winning at Newcastle and landing a gamble in the process and it although that was only a weak affair it was quite a surprise to see him only raised 6lb for that effort and conditions should prove no problem. At the other end of the handicap One For Harry a frequent visitor here has been in good form of late but might just find this mark of 142 beyond him now. Strong Economy reverts to hurdles after not quite firing over fences and it will be interesting to see how Irish challenger Notwhatiam making his debut for a yard well known for their raids on the Flat moves in the market with a tongue-tie on for the first time.
