Forecasts

I'm To Blame (5/6), Irish Roe (2/1), Mahlervous (9/2), Dr Hooves (16/1)

Verdict

While yet to win over fences, I'M TO BLAME has improved on his hurdles form in two starts to date and shaped as if there is further improvement to come in this discipline. With a small field his trainer Keith Dalgleish looks to have found an ideal opportunity to notch a chasing success. Irish Roe on paper is the main danger given her recent revival and 3lb allowance from the selection, while Mahlervous has showed himself to be a more-than capable horse, but may strip fitter for this outing.
