Forecasts

Party Playboy (11/8), Definite Plan (7/2), Gold Speed (13/2), Imperial View (7/1), Kalanisi Og (8/1), Our Friend (10/1), Blackhillsofdakota (20/1), Military Hill (33/1), Chasing Charlie (100/1)

Verdict

A competitive event with Our Friend somewhat an unknown quantity after he made a winning start to his career in a weaker race than this. He must enter calculations after going awfully close in the Cesarewitch on the flat when last seen, but we know how good Party Playboy really is over hurdles. Kalanisi Og had to rely on her class after making a few jumping errors when getting off the mark at Clonmel recently. She will need to hurdle more fluently but has strong claims. The selection is DEFINITE PLAN who only narrowly failed to maintain his unbeaten record over obstacles when a neck-second to an above-average Gigginstown-sort. He can concede the weight all round.
  1. Definite Plan
  2. Kalanisi Og
  3. Party Playboy
