Forecasts

Here Comes Johny (6/5), Elmdale (5/2), Switch Hitter (11/4), The Weasel (20/1), Irish Sovereign (50/1)

Having landed an Irish point in February, HERE COMES JOHNY offered plenty to work on when runner-up in a Market Rasen bumper 3 weeks ago and looks the one to beat now hurdling. Switch Hitter was a £120,000 purchase after a win between the flags and he won't lack for fitness on hurdles debut representing Paul Nicholls, so he's feared most.
