Forecasts

Danse Idol (7/5), Northern Beau (9/4), Black Tulip (3/1), Nightfly (7/1)

Verdict

A case can be made for all four runners here but DANSE IDOL made a positive start for the in-form Dan Skelton yard when second in a novice chase at Ludlow last month and is taken to build on that and go one better now, perhaps at the main expense of Black Tulip.

  1. DANSE IDOL (IRE)
  2. BLACK TULIP
  3. NORTHERN BEAU (IRE)
