Forecasts

Fifty Shades (4/5), Blue Kascade (11/4), Lord County (7/2), Bright Prospect (9/2), Justforjames (13/2)

Verdict

The six-year-old Fifty Shades ought to prove capable of winning a race of this nature based upon his early season form (Cheltenham). With ground conditions in his favour there's little doubt that he'll be a popular choice among the punters. Therefore, we'll seek the potential value elsewhere in a race where a couple of the others can be considered as unlikely winners. The experience of the 4m Borders National at Kelso wasn't necessarily to the liking of BRIGHT PROSPECT, but his November Wetherby third to Miles To Milan is respectable form and as a possible pace-angle around this sharp track (alongside Blue Kascade) he could just take some pegging back.
