Forecasts

Overland Flyer (4/5), The Eaglehaslanded (13/8), Mighty Leader (7/4), All Kings (6/1), Brown Revel (66/1)

Verdict

Unless Mighty Leader has improved in the jumping department since he was last tried over fences, this looks to lay between the Paul Nicholls-trained duo OVERLAND FLYER and The Eaglehaslanded. The latter has clearly not been the easiest to keep sound since looking progressive over hurdles a couple of years ago and so the latter, who had an excuse with the heavy ground on his reappearance, is the suggestion today.
  1. Overland Flyer
  2. The Eaglehaslanded
  3. Mighty Leader
