Forecasts

Extreme Force (3/1), Black Abbey (3/1), Ragnar (4/1), Earl Of Harrow (11/2), Guena Des Mottes (7/1), Sarasota Star (8/1), Calevade (33/1), Guandi (33/1), The Rutland Rebel (50/1), Ride The Monkey (100/1)

Verdict

An interesting novice hurdle with several possibilities although there are question marks against most of the main contenders. Extreme Force sets the standard having already won over C&D but he may be anchored by his penalty again and the same could be said of Guena Des Mottes who has bounce back from a fall last time. Ragnar was another who fell on his debut and he’ll need to tidy his jumping up with Black Abbey looking to need further than this sharp 2m. EARL OF HARROW was useful on the Flat last year and given his pedigree he looks as though he’ll take to the jumping game having joined the Greatrex yard; he may well be able to make a winning debut.
  1. Earl Of Harrow
  2. Extreme Force
  3. Black Abbey
