Forecasts

Guard The Moon (4/7), Panhandle Slim (3/1), Mr Bramley (9/2), Absolute Steel (17/2), Scrumpy (100/1), Over Milk Wood (125/1), Legostar (250/1), Pearly King (300/1)

Verdict

Dual course bumper winner GUARD THE MOON showed plenty of aptitude for hurdling when third at Chepstow and looks the one to beat. Mr Bramley was progressive in bumpers so may emerge as the biggest threat with Panhandle Slim and Absolute Steel both shouldering penalties.

  1. GUARD THE MOON
  2. MR BRAMLEY
  3. PANHANDLE SLIM (IRE)
