Forecasts

Raise A Spark (11/8), Wisty (7/4), Oliver's Gold (4/1), Nicolas Chauvin (8/1)

A fascinating little heat with three of last year’s runners meeting again in a scenario that should suit WISTY who got embroiled in a pace duel last time that saw him run poorly (Oliver’s Gold suited by the run of the race to finish 2nd); he should get a soft lead this time. Oliver’s Gold is 10lb better off for his beating last year and does have that good run to his name here this year but he was very much suited by the run of the race and he has looked a little below-par of late. Raise A Spark is the main danger having looked to enjoy his chasing debut over a longer trip here and still looks nicely weighted on his hurdles form if he can cope with the shorter trip.
