Forecasts

Holmes St Georges (11/4), Fingal's Hill (7/2), Thereisnodoubt (7/2), Word Has It (9/2), McGowan's Pass (7/1), Fostered Phil (10/1), Onward Route (11/1), Band of Outlaws (28/1)

Verdict

WORD HAS IT got back to his very best when runner-up returned to hurdling at Stratford a month ago and from the same mark, hopes are high that he can go one place better. McGowan's Pass is also well weighted these days and is a threat, with Fingal's Hill another to consider.
