Forecasts

Sword Of Fate (5/4), Hidden Charmer (2/1), Capeland (3/1), Flo'sboy Sam (11/1)

Verdict

Sword Of Fate will be a big danger if he's allowed to dominate and can pick his feet up a bit better, but Capeland and HIDDEN CHARMER are both capable of better form than they have shown over hurdles and preference is for the latter, whose yard had a good winner in the week. Capeland has to be respected with the yard's excellent record at the track though, and will be no pushover.
  1. Hidden Charmer
  2. Capeland
  3. Sword Of Fate
