Forecasts

Dreams Of Home (11/10), Fugitif (7/4), Adrimel (7/2), Dis Donc (33/1)

Verdict

DREAMS OF HOME wasted little time running to a useful level over fences, impressing when an all-the-way-winner at Ayr, and with more to come, he receives the vote. Fugitif also left his hurdles form behind switched to the larger obstacles at Worcester and is the obvious threat, as Adrimel has a fair bit to prove at present.
