Forecasts

Copain De Classe (15/8), Born Survivor (7/2), Guitar Pete (9/2), Dingo Dollar (5/1), Cracking Find (6/1), Kylemore Lough (6/1), Splash of Ginge (7/1), Pain Au Chocolat (16/1), Delusionofgrandeur (20/1), Just Cameron (40/1)

Verdict

This promises to be run at a decent gallop and sound jumping is going to be the key. COPAIN DE CLASSE looked a different horse after a wind operation at Kempton and the way he travelled strongly there suggests he's well in front of the handicapper. A repeat of that would take him very close. With last year's winner Guitar Pete perhaps wanting a bit of rain, Dingo Dollar , who will he happier with conditions, might be the danger. Pain Au Chocolat could take a prize home if ready to go after a break.
