Forecasts

Safe Destination (10/3), Justshortofabubble (9/2), West Orchard (9/2), Gallow Ford (11/2), Braganza Bay (17/2), On The Platform (9/1), Deadly Missile (12/1), Meechlands Magic (18/1), Ballyrashane (20/1), Milanese Rose (20/1), Voice Of Hope (125/1), Earcomesbob (150/1)

Verdict

BRAGANZA BAY will probably have a tougher time of things here than when winning on chase debut at Hereford but a 7 lb rise looks manageable and Henry Daly's charge is fancied to follow up. Meechlands Magic has also already surpassed his hurdles form and remains worth viewing positively after a non-completion last time, with the reliable Justshortofabubble likely to give another good show.
