Forecasts

Matterhorn (4/11), Fringill Dike (11/4), Grey Diamond (18/1), Scottsdale (80/1)

MATTERHORN has progressed with each of his 4 starts over fences so far, maintaining his unbeaten record when cruising clear at Stratford last time, so he holds leading claims with even more still to offer. Fringill Dike is a much better chaser than hurdler, winning 4 of his 7 starts in this sphere, and looks the biggest threat.
