Forecasts

Osprey Call (13/8), Bombyx (9/4), Italian Spirit (11/2), Lord Baddesley (6/1), Across The Channel (18/1), Zuba (20/1), Byzantine Empire (25/1), Lissitzky (33/1), Naturally High (33/1), Rocco Du Berlais (200/1)

Verdict

BOMBYX probably didn't have much to beat at Huntingdon last week but it was still an impressive start to his hurdle career and he looks up to defying a penalty. Lord Baddesley remains open to progress on his first outing since an early unseat in a Cheltenham Grade 2 in January and he can provide the chief threat ahead of Market Rasen bumper winner Italian Spirit.

  1. BOMBYX
  2. LORD BADDESLEY (IRE)
  3. ITALIAN SPIRIT (IRE)
