Forecasts

Itchy Feet (16/5), Vision Des Flos (5/1), Oldgrangewood (13/2), Midnight Shadow (7/1), Magic Saint (8/1), Annie Mc (17/2), Clondaw Castle (14/1), Cracking Destiny (16/1), Nuts Well (18/1), Imperial Presence (18/1), Crievehill (25/1), Really Super (25/1), Yorkhill (28/1)

Verdict

ITCHY FEET was let down by his jumping when one of the market leaders for the Marsh at the Cheltenham Festival, but he'd coped well with the demands of Sandown's fences when winning the Scilly Isles and his opening mark looks a fair one for a Grade 1 winner. Midnight Shadow was runner-up to the selection at Sandown and is 5 lb better off now, so rates the main threat ahead of Oldgrangewood.

  2. MIDNIGHT SHADOW
