Forecasts

Linelee King (13/8), Dubai Days (3/1), Royal Arcade (7/2), Heartbreak Kid (7/2)

Verdict

A fairly-useful winner over hurdles, LINELEE KING knuckled down well to make a winning chase debut at Aintree last month and he earns the vote to follow up from a 4 lb higher mark with the prospect of more to come. Heartbreak Kid, who has run well on both outings this campaign, can pose the chief threat.

  1. LINELEE KING (FR)
  2. HEARTBREAK KID (IRE)
  3. DUBAI DAYS (IRE)
