Forecasts

Dream In The Park (6/4), Sophosc (7/2), Alto Alto (4/1), Camulus (11/2), Hardy Boy (6/1), Harry D'alene (9/1), Rare Clouds (14/1), Universal Secret (40/1)

Verdict

SOPHOSC has taken notably well to hurdling and the way he went about his business at Fakenham recently suggests that this 9 lb higher mark should be within reach. The 6-y-o is taken to maintain his unbeaten record in this sphere, perhaps at the chief expense of Stratford-winner Dream In The Park. Camulus needs to improve now moving into handicap company but that is entirely possible and he is third choice ahead of Alto Alto.

  1. SOPHOSC (IRE)
