Forecasts

Verdict

GOOD BOY BOBBY was one of the leading bumper performers last season, and should be able to make a winning debut in this sphere with his yard's horses seemingly well forward. Return Ticket will struggle to give weight to the selection if that one jumps proficiently, but still looks best of the rest, ahead of The Some Dance Kid.
  1. Good Boy Bobby
  2. Return Ticket
  3. The Some Dance Kid
