Forecasts

Mr Mafia (15/8), Young Wolf (2/1), Alfie's Choice (4/1), Jacks Last Hope (5/1), Morraman (11/2), Theatrebar (7/1)

A trappy heat that may fall to bottom weight MR MAFIA who loves it here. He won by wide margins in two handicap chases last month but has also won here over hurdles in the past so is no forlorn hope to continue his form over these smaller obstacles. Young Wolf always seems to prove popular with pounters and hit the target last time with a brave success. He should be thereabouts once again, along with in-form top weight Theatrebar. 2017 winner Jack's Last Hope hinted at an impending return to form last time and could prove the main danger to the selection.
