Forecasts

Wicked West (8/13), Shiroccan Roll (5/2), Raffles Gitane (5/1)

WICKED WEST has run well on his last 4 hurdle starts and, with a return to less testing ground no bad thing, he's put forward as the answer on this switch to chasing. Raffles Gitane failed to recover after an early blunder at Stratford last time, so is much better judged on her win at Huntingdon in January.
