Forecasts

That Ole Chestnut (2/1), C'Est Quelqu'un (5/1), Brown Bullet (13/2), Balkardy (8/1), Envol De La Cour (9/1), Zillion (10/1), Magnificent Ben (10/1), Season In The Sun (12/1), Quiana (25/1), Good Time Ahead (40/1)

Verdict

It was a long time ago that ZILLION last lined-up in a race over hurdles, but he is nevertheless worth chancing given that pretty much all 10 of these have a bit to prove for one reason or another. Susan Gardner's charge was successful on the Flat last year and resumes in this sphere on a lowly mark. Magnificent Ben is next on the list ahead of Envol de La Cour and That Ole Chestnut.

  1. ZILLION (IRE)
  2. MAGNIFICENT BEN (IRE)
  3. ENVOL DE LA COUR (FR)
