Forecasts

Inthewaterside (8/11), Doddiethegreat (5/4), Cloud Dancer (18/1), Junkanoo (40/1)

Verdict

INTHEWATERSIDE was unimpressive in maintaining his unbeaten record on hurdles debut at Aintree last month, but that was a race not run to suit, and with this drop in trip unlikely to inconvenience Paul Nicholls' 5-y-o, he can land this on his way to bigger things. Doddiethegreat looked a very good prospect when last seen 2 years ago and he's an intriguing contender from another top stable.
