Forecasts

Risk A Fine (10/11), Road To Riches (4/1), Crazy Jack (9/2), Sam Cavallaro (11/2), Numbercruncher (25/1)

Verdict

RISK A FINE may have topweight but he stands out on hunter chase form and his front-running style is suited to this venue where he has won previously. Crazy Jack won this last year but does not arrive in such good shape this time, whereas Sam Cavallaro, who was beaten 27L, scored at Cheltenham recently. Road To Riches was third in the Aintree Foxhunters and rates a bigger danger. The Irish challenger was sixth to Tiger Roll in the 2018 Grand National so this may be on the sharp side, but he still rates the main threat to the selection.
  1. Risk A Fine
