Forecasts

Knappers Hill (11/8), Sceau Royal (11/8), Milkwood (8/1), Knight Salute (10/1)

Verdict

This seems more competitive than the market suggests, and MILKWOOD looks the value call on these terms after his good second in the Welsh Champion Hurdle. The progressive Knappers Hill may emerge as the biggest threat with Sceau Royal and Knight Salute shouldering penalties.

  1. MILKWOOD (IRE)
  2. SCEAU ROYAL (FR)
  3. KNAPPERS HILL (IRE)
