Forecasts

Coventry (2/1), Sideshift (9/4), Happy Victory (7/2), Ya Ya Baby (6/1), Up With The Play (6/1), Call Me Rocky (15/2), Hedos De Berce (14/1), Jovial Jack (16/1), Clarens (18/1), Buto (33/1), Buzz Light (40/1), Mephisto (50/1), Bergentown (100/1), Da Little Grey Lad (200/1)

Verdict

YA YA BABY unseated her rider on hurdling debut earlier in the month but she was sent off 11/4 that day and can put that experience behind her here. Coventry also came unstuck last time but is likely better than that and will be a danger. Sideshift has been running creditably and shouldn't be far away.
