5/4
Four-times winner over hurdles who made a successful chase debut over C&D, He made all, jumping well that day, and sets a decent standard on that display.

Forever Field21
Age: 7|  Weight: 10-12| J: N de Boinville| T: N J Henderson
4/6
Useful hurdler who finished second of three on his chasing debut at Kempton. The winner has won again since, while the third was also successful last time so the form is rock solid. LIkely to take all the beating.

100/1
Winning point-to-pointer who was beaten out of sight in a novice chase at Worcester when last sighted in June, 2016. Readily opposed.

50/1
Has shown signs of ability in point-to-points and novice chases, but was pulled up at Fakenham last time and needs to bounce back in a stronger race.

Forecasts

Forever Field (4/6), Midnight Shot (5/4), General Bux (12/1), Touch Screen (50/1), The Crazy Crab (100/1)

Verdict

The form of the Kempton race in which FOREVER FIELD made his debut is working out particularly well and he looks much the most likely winner for his top trainer, who does not have that many runners at this track. Midnight Shot jumped well to win on his debut over C&D and should not be underestimated, while Touch Screen looks the most likely contender for the minor honours.
  1. Forever Field
  2. Midnight Shot
  3. Touch Screen
