Forecasts

Tommy Rapper (11/10), Darlac (6/5), Neachells Bridge (7/1)

TOMMY RAPPER is the only one of these with experience over fences and that could count for a lot here. He ended his last campaign by finishing second in a Group 3 contest at Aintree over hurdles which is good form. Take him to win this small field. contest. Darlac was a smart hurdler and if he can transfer some of those performances to chasing from the off, he won't be far away, while Neachells Bridge may have to bring up the rear on his first look at fences.
