Forecasts

Duc De Grissay (3/1), Crixus's Escape (7/2), Quick Wave (5/1), Claud And Goldie (11/2), Jonniesofa (15/2), Vintage Clouds (17/2), Up Helly Aa King (9/1), Dieu Vivant (25/1)

Verdict

DUC DE GRISSAY landed a novice chase over C&D last season and looked the likeliest winner of the Borders National last time before unseating at the last, so he's fancied to continue his improvement and land this despite an 8 lb rise. Recent Catterick scorer Quick Wave is an obvious danger, while Vintage Clouds is worth a mention now back on a feasible mark.
