Forecasts

Hiway One O Three (5/4), Dash Of Blue (5/2), Dock Road (11/2), Happy News (17/2), Eurkash (18/1), Joey Steel (22/1), Harlem Soul (25/1), Welsh's Castle (40/1)

Verdict

It may pay to focus on the pair at the top of the weights who likely have more to offer over fences. DASH OF BLUE impressed with his accurate jumping when making a successful start to his chase career at Southwell and is narrowly preferred to Lingfield fourth Hiway One O Three. Happy News has a good record fresh and would also enter the reckoning if the market vibes are strong on her return for a new stable.

  1. DASH OF BLUE
  2. HIWAY ONE O THREE (IRE)
  3. HAPPY NEWS
