Forecasts

Freewheelin Dylan (2/1), High Sparrow (9/2), Mister Fogpatches (9/2), Dont Go Mad (7/1), Holy Motivation (8/1), Thegoaheadman (10/1), Venezia (10/1), Persian Wind (11/1), Drumacoo (25/1)

Verdict

HIGH SPARROW should welcome this return to hurdles and this represents a weaker grade than he normally finds himself in so he could be up to giving the weight away. Freewheelin Dylan has it in him to be a big danger and along with Venezia could pose the selection most problems.
  1. High Sparrow
  2. Freewheelin Dylan
  3. Venezia
