Forecasts

Milan Bridge (85/40), Neon Moon (3/1), Frenchy Du Large (10/3), Le Cameleon (7/2), Dead Right (14/1)

Verdict

The vote goes to NEON MOON, who didn't shape at all badly starting out over fences at Exeter in November and there have been excuses since (race came too soon on second start of the campaign then he fell back from a break at Wincanton). He is just 1 lb higher than for the third of his 3 wins over hurdles last season and he's still very much an unknown quantity in this sphere. Milan Bridge is a similar type in many respects and he is feared most ahead of the top-weight Le Cameleon.

  1. NEON MOON (IRE)
  2. MILAN BRIDGE (IRE)
  3. LE CAMELEON
