Forecasts

Cheddleton (7/4), No Risk Des Flos (7/2), Malystic (13/2), Eclair D'Ainay (8/1), Friend Or Foe (17/2), Heartbreak Kid (9/1), Cornerstone Lad (16/1), And The New (25/1), Daly Tiger (50/1)

Verdict

CHEDDLETON was over 6 lengths behind Eclair d'Ainay when runner-up in this last year but he's a stone better off with the winner on this occasion and Jennie Candlish's charge is taken to go one better having had a pipe-opener over hurdles last month. No Risk des Flos looks progressive and is another to consider.

  1. CHEDDLETON
  2. NO RISK DES FLOS (FR)
  3. ECLAIR D'AINAY (FR)
