Forecasts

Swaffham Bulbeck (11/10), Grand Inquisitor (7/4), War Drums (5/1), Emerald Rocket (8/1)

With no obvious pace angle, this is likely to be a very tactical affair. In which case, the course experience held by SWAFFHAM BULBECK could be a vital tool. The gelding benefits from a 10lb claimer in the saddle and could be hard to master if using his last couple of starts as a platform. Grand Inquisitor is open to further improvement over hurdles and is likely to pose more of a threat than hurdling debutantes Emerald Rocket and War Drums, who both have a few questions to answer.
