Forecasts

Alpha Male (11/8), Enniskillen (4/1), Change Your Story (11/2), Boubafly (8/1), Tipp Away (10/1), Flirting Lesa (14/1), Handy Headon (16/1), Belocima (16/1), Captain Commander (25/1), Puff Of Smoke (66/1)

Peter Maher won this race last year with Alpha Male who tries again, but perhaps Change Your Story is the best of his five representatives this time. Handy Headon and Boubafly have hinted at ability, but this may go to TIPP AWAY, who has been running respectably in point-to-points and may make a winning hunter chase debut.
