Forecasts

Bowerman (2/1), Elzaam Blue (4/1), Dalvey (5/1), No Trouble (11/2), In From The Cold (13/2), Dartington (7/1), Eskimo Komet (10/1), Big Kitten (18/1), Emperor Of Silk (22/1)

Verdict

Gordon Elliott probably holds the key to this with IN FROM THE COLD, who was disappointing over hurdles a month ago, fancied to bounce back switched to the AW. Dartington has been off since the autumn but he figures on a good mark, with recent-course winner Bowerman also considered.

  1. IN FROM THE COLD (IRE)
  2. DARTINGTON (IRE)
  3. BOWERMAN
