Forecasts

Early Arrival (9/4), Berliet Express (7/2), The Eye Of Tulla (9/2), Itsalonglongroad (15/2), Barbaha Queen (8/1), Benefit Run (12/1), Go Battle (12/1), Fly De Megaudais (16/1), Ardamir (22/1), Cracklinrose (22/1)

Verdict

BERLIET EXPRESS isn't one maximum faith but he has a more solid recent record than most of these and perhaps this can finally be his day over fences. Early Arrival continues to look well treated on hurdle form and is second choice ahead of Itsalonglongroad.
