Forecasts

Ace Of Spades (1/1), Whimsy (6/4), Country Park (17/2), Maghlaak (14/1), Unleash The Beast (25/1)

ACE OF SPADES was quick to match his useful bumper form in this sphere when runner-up at Exeter last month and is fancied to build on it and go one better now. Irish challenger Whimsy comes here in great nick though so should ensure Dan Skelton's good prospect doesn't have things all his own way. Hurdling debutants Unleash The Beast and Maghlaak also bring potential to this intriguing maiden.
