Forecasts

Cornerstone Lad (5/4), Casa Tall (6/4), Imperial Nemesis (10/1), Macardle (16/1), Friends In Heaven (22/1), Chookie Royale (25/1), Asylo (33/1), Akkadian Empire (33/1), Classical Rose (50/1), Geordielandgangsta (100/1), That's Life (100/1), J And M Greengairs (200/1), Mr Sandgate (250/1)

Verdict

Strong numerically, but not so in depth unless one or two of the hurdling newcomers such as Imperial Nemesis or Macardle take a significant step forward on their efforts in bumpers. Therefore, this almost certainly rests between the consistent Cornerstone Lad, and the unexposed CASA TALL. Tom George has his string in respectable form at present, and his former French racer will find this level of opposition considerably easier than in the Fred Winter at the Cheltenham Festival last month.
  1. Casa Tall
  2. Cornerstone Lad
  3. Macardle
