Forecasts

Frere d'Armes (7/4), Corrigeen Rock (16/5), Fast Buck (15/2), Dolos (17/2), Xcitations (17/2), Black Gerry (9/1), Prince Escalus (11/1), Royale Margaux (22/1), Hatcher (80/1)

FRERE D'ARMES looked a natural when winning both his starts over fences in November and is probably still ahead of his mark given his potential. This should be run at a good pace with in-form front-runners Corrigeen Rock, Fast Buck and Prince Escalus heading up the opposition.
