Forecasts

Howaya Now (11/4), Illico De Cotte (7/2), Oak Creek (4/1), Spot Of Bother (15/2), Monbari (10/1), Hey Brother (12/1), Galloping Pride (14/1), Paddy De Pole (14/1), Robinsville (22/1), Ballywalter (28/1), Ellies Sister (125/1), Jalisco Star (150/1)

Verdict

ILLICO DE COTTE shaped promisingly when narrowly denied at Lingfield on his hurdles debut, so he's worth another chance to build on that effort having found it tough in a Grade 2 at Cheltenham last time. He can get the better of Howaya Now, who was in the process of matching his fair hurdles form when falling on his chase debut, with Oak Creek also respected.

  1. ILLICO DE COTTE (FR)
