Forecasts

Hell Red (4/9), Ikarak (7/4), Hudson De Grugy (5/2), Wewillgowithplanb (4/1), Zacony Rebel (8/1)

A case can be made for all of these but WEWILLGOWITHPLANB easily got off the mark on his first go over fences here for Richard Bandey and now reverts to this sphere after a solid third over hurdles. He looks to have more to offer so gets the vote ahead of recent Sandown scorer Hudson de Grugy, although the returning Hell Red and Milton Harris' new recruit Ikarak need factoring in too.
