Forecasts

Bob And Co (1/1), Swift Crusador (2/1), Ballynagour (5/1), Pass The Hat (8/1)

Verdict

A small-field but nevertheless an intriguing affair. Pass The Hat is the only one in this race who can be comfortably ruled out given the questions he has to answer after his previous two efforts. On official ratings, BOB AND CO should win this easily. However, he was a major disappointment on his UK/hunter chase debut recently when pulling his riders arms out before being pulled-up. He is given another chance in the hope that was a one-off as his French form entitles him to plenty of respect. Swift Crusador lacks fitness, but was contesting decent handicaps at Sandown/Newbury when last seen, while Ballynagour is another who will need to settle if he is to feature
