Forecasts

Wodhooh (11/10), Our Boy Wes (9/4), Pigeon House (11/4), Cossack Chach (7/2), Biggerthanbigtime (18/1), Bedelia (125/1), Adare Beauty (150/1)

Verdict

Quite a useful early-season juvenile. WODHOOH gets the nod for Gordon Elliott, but fellow hurdle winners Cossack Chach and Our Boy Wes are also likely to be in the thick of things, while recent Gowran second Pigeon House also has the form to get very competitive.

  1. WODHOOH (FR)
  2. COSSACK CHACH (IRE)
  3. OUR BOY WES
