Forecasts

Christopher Wood (10/11), Lucky Flight (9/2), Dear Sire (9/2), For Three (8/1), Goldencard (9/1), Skiddaw Valleys (10/1)

LUCKY FLIGHT is unbeaten in two starts over obstacles and he can maintain that unbeaten record by registering a handicap debut success in this small field event. Christopher Wood is dropping markedly in class here and he can finish runner-up on his first outing since wind surgery while third place can go to Skiddaw Valleys who is switched to handicaps on his first start since last May.
