Forecasts

Sir Gerhard (4/7), Dysart Dynamo (13/8), Mighty Potter (20/1), Vina Ardanza (66/1), Gatsby Grey (100/1)

SIR GERHARD is not short of speed, so with a return to 2m unlikely to pose a problem, he's taken to extend his unbeaten record over hurdles to 4. Dysart Dynamo can provide the main threat.
