Forecasts

Le Rocher (1/10), Royal Act (8/1), Sussex Road (28/1)

LE ROCHER appears to have a simple task in this three runner novices' chase. The selection is rated vastly superior to his rivals over hurdles and can maintain his unbeaten record over fences at the chief expense of Royal Act who is making his chasing debut today. Sussex Road can pick up third place prize money today.
