Forecasts

Kings Halo (11/4), Silver King (3/1), Chosen Diamond (7/2), Clonmeen (4/1), Where It All Began (8/1), Tucson Train (11/1), Soldier Of Honour (25/1), The Big Galloper (28/1)

KINGS HALO has shown improved form over fences this season, opening his chase account at Tramore on his latest outing, and he can score again with the step up in trip likely to suit. Chosen Diamond is worth another chance to build on his successful chase debut and could be the main danger, while Clonmeen also merits consideration.
