Forecasts

Armchair Farmer (4/7), Horacio Apple's (5/2), Grand Du Nord (9/2), Twoconduit (5/1), Miss Milano (13/2)

Verdict

ARMCHAIR FARMER ran his rivals ragged at Exeter last week and will be hard to beat under a penalty if turning up in similar form. Horacio Apple's is also going the right way though, and must be respected in his hat-trick bid, while Irish-raider Twoconduit needs a market check on handicap debut with Brian Hughes in the saddle.
