Forecasts

Nube Negra (2/5), Encore Champs (11/2), Ar Mest (7/1), Locker Room Talk (12/1), Fleur Irlandaise (20/1)

A really good race for the money and hard to totally rule any of the five out. NUBE NEGRA jumped like an old hand on chase debut at Warwick, taking the scalp of the useful Ballymoy in the process and despite having the penalty to carry for that, can put the experience to good use and follow up. Ar Mest should be up to making the selection work for the win and both Encore Champs and Locker Room Talk have the scope to improve over fences. Even Fleur Irlandaise cannot be discounted getting so much weight.
