Forecasts

My Drogo (2/9), Jay Bee Why (11/2), Torn And Frayed (8/1), Captain Cuckoo (125/1)

Verdict

MY DROGO looked to have the measure of his sole rival when departing at the tricky second last here last month. He's sure to take high rank among the novice chasers this winter so, provided he's none the worse, this looks an ideal opportunity for him to get back on track. Jay Bee Why needs to brush up his jumping but he can edge out Torn And Frayed for the forecast spot.
