Forecasts

Pied Piper (4/9), Aspire Tower (11/4), Eagle Fang (17/2), Byker (28/1)

Though below par on the Flat the last twice, PIED PIPER put in a solid shift when third in a major Cheltenham Festival handicap on his latest hurdles start and he'll be very hard to beat if able to reproduce form akin to that here. Aspire Tower is clear second choice ahead of Byker.
