Forecasts

Carrie Des Champs (1/4), The Distant Lady (4/1), Go To Court (12/1), Winter Holiday (22/1), Lexi (33/1), Connemara Lass (200/1)

The second short-priced Gordon Elliott trained horse in the card Carrie Des Champs has shown that she has ability but will have to jump better than she did at Perth and these brush hurdles take a little jumping. She’ll be hard to beat but THE DISTANT LADY looks nicely bought at £6,500 having won well on her bumper debut here and she might just be able to pull another surprise out of the bag on her hurdles debut. All of the others have plenty to find with Winter Holiday and Go To Court who may improve for some recent wind surgery expected to battle it out for the minor place.
