Forecasts

St Gallen (9/5), Henrietta Bell (9/4), Nimby (7/2), Dream Machine (4/1), Marcel Debruxelles (7/1), Sorbet (8/1), Made For You (10/1), Rukwa (25/1), See The City (33/1), Swilly Sunset (100/1), Ivor The Fox (150/1)

Verdict

Backers won’t be short of options in this first with the Olly Murphy pair St Gallen and Made For You making plenty of appeal as the former returns to hurdling and the latter starts his career over timber. The presence of Richard Johnson on St Gallen would suggest that he’s the pick of the pair from that yard. Marcel Debruxelles will need to step up what he did last time but that isn’t beyond the realms of possibility and he along with Henrietta Bell and Nimby provide some strength in depth to the race. Hurdling newcomer DREAM MACHINE brings some excellent Flat form to the table and having had a recent run in that sphere he’s taken to make a winning debut over timber.
