Forecasts

Barbados Buck's (2/1), The Domino Effect (3/1), Bobhopeornohope (3/1), Fedelta (9/2), It Sure Is (6/1), Undersupervision (10/1), Welsh's Castle (12/1), Slipway (20/1), Gallow Ford (66/1), Ezzrah (300/1)

Verdict

This stiffer test promises to suit BOBHOPEORNOHOPE, who had plenty in hand when making it 2-2 over hurdles at Doncaster and he is marginally preferred to the similarly promising Barbados Buck's. It would be unwise to underestimate Welsh's Castle on the back of his improved effort at Uttoxeter, while The Domino Effect also merits respect and Undersupervision is something of an unknown quantity.
