Forecasts

Edwardstone (11/10), Boothill (11/4), Amarillo Sky (7/2), Editeur Du Gite (5/1), Funambule Sivola (8/1), Calico (16/1)

Verdict

EDWARDSTONE was unsuited by the step up in trip in the Silviniaco Conti Chase at Kempton last month and can quickly bounce back returned to his optimum distance with no Jonbon to contend with this time. Boothill and Editeur du Gite are potentially big threats despite both being let down by rare jumping errors last time.
