Forecasts

Peregrine Run (6/4), Canardier (3/1), Woodland Opera (5/1), De Plotting Shed (13/2), Road To Riches (8/1), High Nellie (25/1), The White Volcano (33/1), Moylisha Tim (33/1), I'm An Izz Wizz (33/1), Quiet Account (66/1)

Verdict

With a couple of runners looking for form over hurdles it may be left to the likes of WOODLAND OPERA who brings solid form over timber to the table. Course winner, Canardier can go well once again posing the biggest threat to Peregrine Run and De Plotting Shed for the minor honours.
  1. Woodland Opera
  2. Canardier
  3. Peregrine Run
