Forecasts

French Ship (11/10), Let It Rain (11/8), Got A Dream (13/2), Newton Tornado (15/2), Socialiser (50/1), Babatunde (80/1), River Run Free (80/1), Largy Valley (150/1), Pethers Run (150/1), El Bandido Pancho (250/1), Johnnie River (300/1)

Verdict

FRENCH SHIP is the percentage call on the back of his promising opening second over hurdles in a 2m course novice last month, although Dan Skelton listed bumper winner Let It Rain has the potential to be a big threat if taking to her new discipline back from 10 months off. Got A Dream is another bumper winner who should have a bright future over jumps in an interesting maiden hurdle.

  1. FRENCH SHIP
  2. LET IT RAIN
