Forecasts

Bowenspark (4/9), Realisation (10/3), Macanogue (17/2), Clararose (12/1), Damarta (14/1), Lone Soldier (66/1), Thatza Dazzler (125/1), Crac De Megaudais (200/1), Grain Trade (200/1)

Verdict

Bumper winners REALISATION and Bowenspark both make plenty of appeal now tackling hurdles, and while the latter is greatly respected on the strength of his effort at the Aintree Grand National meeting in April, Realisation is marginally preferred. She was pretty impressive when landing a bumper at Bangor last year and is a potentially useful recruit to this sphere. Clararose looks the pick of those with hurdles experience, given that Damarta is likely to come into his own in handicaps later on.
