Forecasts

Harvest Bow (11/10), Colfer Me (9/4), Recent Revelations (11/4), Very Excellent (6/1), Mianna (10/1), Fassbender (16/1), Scotts Honor (25/1), Ventnor (25/1), Castlegrove (33/1), Dsoloman (33/1), Grove Gold (33/1), Puddymore (50/1), Colonel Lesley (66/1), La Capacite (100/1)

Verdict

HARVEST BOW is entitled to have strong claims here having finished second in both starts over timber thus far, the latest of those efforts boosted when the winner convincingly won a Listed race in France next time out. Colfer Me also showed a good aptitude for hurdling first time out, while both Recent Revelations and Very Excellent are possibly leading candidates coming from the Flat.
