Forecasts

Dusart (2/7), Pats Fancy (13/8), Flash Collonges (3/1), Captain Cuckoo (40/1), Reign Suepreme (66/1)

Verdict

Both PATS FANCY and Dusart are open to any amount of improvement but preference is for the former, who made it 2-3 in this sphere at Chepstow just over 5 weeks ago and looks a chaser destined for bigger and better things. Nicky Henderson's charge rates as a major danger provided he can brush up on his jumping technique, while it's too early to be writing off Flash Collonges, also.

  1. PATS FANCY (IRE)

  3. FLASH COLLONGES (FR)
