Forecasts

Yealand (13/8), The Paddy Pie (7/2), Tom Creen (7/1), Heritier (15/2), Gandhi Maker (17/2), Le Jeune Bresil (9/1), Fete Champetre (20/1), Kaproyale (22/1)

Verdict

YEALAND stepped up on his hurdles form at the first attempt when making a winning debut in this sphere with a bit in hand at Doncaster 2 weeks ago and looks capable of defying a 4 lb rise with further improvement forthcoming, Kaproyale looks on a handy mark back in a handicap so is next best ahead of the veteran The Paddy Pie.
