Forecasts

Saglawy (13/8), Stratum (3/1), Sizing John (4/1), Burrows Saint (13/2), Cracking Smart (8/1), Sayo (16/1), Kitten Rock (33/1)

SIZING JOHN makes his return to action here after two years off the track and although the former Cheltenham Gold Cup winner is over hurdles in this contest, he should have the class to come out on top. Stratum is a very capable hurdler who is likely to be in the mix on his return to this code following success in the Cesarewitch, while Saglawy is a Grade Two winner who can't be discounted from running a big race as he heads back over hurdles here.
