Forecasts

Peppay Le Pugh (6/4), Minella Voucher (2/1), Zamparelli (5/2), Grow Nasa Grow (13/2), One Style (8/1), Rain In The Face (14/1)

Very few solid options here and if Peppay Le Pugh could be trusted to finish a race off he would have a fine chance here but his application in a finish makes him a risky prospect. MINELLA VOUCHER did manage to place in Irish point-to-points and showed improved form last time out over hurdles and he looks a safer option for win purposes here. One Style will need to settle better to have a chance while Zamparelli looks one to keep an eye on in the market on his second run back from wind surgery although he may need further.
