Forecasts

Butch (6/4), Botox Has (5/2), Sounds Russian (5/1), Red Risk (11/2), Martha Brae (18/1), Wakool (22/1)

An open-looking Grade 2 which can go the way of RED RISK, who found the Long Walk too competitive at Ascot before Christmas, but with plenty of the rain in the forecast (goes very well on heavy), Paul Nicholls' 9-y-o can open his account for the season back down in grade. Butch gained a fourth win from his last 5 starts at Cheltenham on New Year's Day so he rates as an obvious danger, with Botox Has and the returning Sounds Russian another couple to consider.
