Forecasts

Billytherealbigred (9/4), Baltray (5/1), Icare Grandchamp (11/2), I'm Ravenous (6/1), Hawkseye View (7/1), Iron D'ex (8/1), One More Stroke (8/1), Lady Balko (9/1), Valens Bruyee (10/1), Zestful Hope (16/1), Immortal Fame (33/1), Micro Millions (66/1)

Verdict

A whole host of potentially decent chasers, with I'M RAVENOUS taken to make a successful start for Ben Pauling. He's quickly switched to fences after scoring in a Sedgefield maiden hurdle at the start of the month and should have plenty more to offer. Icare Grandchamp, who opened his account in a Newton Abbot handicap chase when last seen, and One More Stroke are a couple of the other likely players.

  1. I'M RAVENOUS (FR)
  2. ICARE GRANDCHAMP (FR)
  3. ONE MORE STROKE (IRE)
