Forecasts

Iolaos Du Mou (15/8), Classic Anthem (7/2), Duhallow Tommy (11/2), Moonshine Spirit (15/2), Father Of Jazz (17/2), He's A Latchico (14/1), State Of Bliss (16/1), Satono Japan (22/1), Royal Max (28/1), Armadar (150/1), Patrioctic (150/1)

Verdict

Although Nicky Henderson's IOLAOS DU MOU failed to fire in a course bumper last time his Newbury win prior to that was promising and he's taken to bounce back and strike on hurdle debut. Moonshine Spirit is open to progress on the back of a sound opening effort over timber and is second choice ahead of Fontwell bumper winner Duhallow Tommy.

  1. IOLAOS DU MOU (FR)
  2. MOONSHINE SPIRIT
  3. DUHALLOW TOMMY (IRE)
