Forecasts

Western Rambler (5/2), Flood Defence (4/1), Garde Forestier (5/1), Torrid (8/1), Red Ochre (10/1), Hey Bob (12/1), Bingo D'Olivate (14/1), Mannochmore (14/1), Camile (16/1), Island Villa (16/1), Lucou (28/1), Infiniti (40/1), Smashing Lass (40/1), Cryogenics (40/1)

Verdict

FLOOD DEFENCE is potentially well treated on her handicap debut over hurdles given her fair form on the level so gets the vote. Her stablemate Camile is also fit from the Flat and she landed a gamble when last seen in this sphere at Southwell in November, so may emerge as the biggest threat. Torrid and Bingo d'Olivate complete the shortlist.

  1. FLOOD DEFENCE (IRE)
  2. CAMILE (IRE)
  3. TORRID
