Forecasts

Thor De Cerisy (9/4), Mongol Emperor (3/1), Prime Pretender (3/1), Real Stone (8/1), Another Crick (11/1), Rooster Cogburn (12/1), File Illico (18/1), Est Illic (66/1)

Verdict

PRIME PRETENDER has found one too good on all 4 of his starts over fences but this looks a good opportunity for him to finally break his duck with doubts surrounding most of his rivals. Thor de Cerisy was an encouraging third at Lingfield on his chase bow/return before ending his losing run back over hurdles here earlier this month, so is the obvious threat.

  1. PRIME PRETENDER
  2. THOR DE CERISY (FR)
  3. MONGOL EMPEROR (IRE)
