Forecasts

Wild Max (2/7), France De Reve (7/2), Nafaayes (10/1), Dog Of War (12/1), Jeremy Sunshine (20/1), Filou Des Issards (25/1), Horatio Star (25/1), Folly Gate (40/1), Etat Major Aulmes (50/1), M' Lady May (50/1), A New Siege (100/1), Sellingallthetime (100/1), Mr Minerals (100/1)

Verdict

WILD MAX impressed when making a winning hurdling debut and he can maintain his unbeaten record over hurdles with a victory in the second division of the novices' hurdle. Nafaayes ran well when finishing runner-up on her most recent start and a repeat of that can see her take second spot once more while third can go to France De Reve who can put a disappointing hurdles debut behind her.
  1. Wild Max
  2. Nafaayes
  3. France De Reve
