Forecasts

Master Tradesman (9/4), Fight Commander (9/4), Criq Sun (4/1), Lakeside Pearl (6/1), Cold Fusion (6/1)

Cold Fusion is unreliable but could certainly go close on a going day while Lakeside Pearl is considered a possible improver on second outing for Jamie Snowden but this may go to CRIQ SUN. He's eased in grade and finds a weak event, while the step up in distance should be in his favour. Fight Commander has been well-backed to no avail over fences since joining Olly Murphy and now reverts to hurdles, he would have claims if reproducing the best of last year's efforts.
