Forecasts

Saint Calvados (1/1), Mister Fisher (11/4), Erne River (4/1), Nuts Well (17/2)

Verdict

SAINT CALVADOS has much less on his plate than when a solid fifth in Aintree's Melling Chase and can gain a first win for Paul Nicholls. Mister Fisher was pulled up there after some indifferent jumping but still rates the chief threat in this small field. Nuts Well and Erne River can't be discounted either in an intriguing Grade 2.

  1. SAINT CALVADOS (FR)
  2. MISTER FISHER (IRE)
  3. NUTS WELL
