Forecasts

Paddys Motorbike (11/4), Poldark Cross (11/4), My Whirlwind (11/4), Ballymillsy (4/1), Land Of Winter (4/1), Get Prepared (10/1), Barricane (14/1), Will Sting (18/1), Floy Joy (33/1), Gumbo Flyer (66/1), Getthepot (66/1), Gentle Rose (100/1), Kemble's Cascade (150/1), Glen Mooar (300/1), Begin The Luck (300/1), Calajani (300/1)

Verdict

POLDARK CROSS went down only to a next-time-out winner on Rules debut at Wetherby and gets the nod to go one better but there are plenty of possible threats, headed by Land of Winter who has developed into a useful stayer on the Flat and should have more to offer now racing beyond 2m for the first time over hurdles. Ballymillsy is also on the shortlist.

  1. POLDARK CROSS (IRE)
  2. LAND OF WINTER (FR)
  3. BALLYMILLSY
