Forecasts

Boot Camp (11/8), Lite Duties (11/4), Dorans River (7/2), Cliff House (7/1), Hugo 'n Taz (12/1), Snugsborough Hall (20/1)

The Gordon Elliott-trained BOOT CAMP appears to have been found an ideal opportunity for his first introduction to fences under Davy Russell and can land the closing race here, seeing off the challenge of Dorans River, with possibly Lite Duties the best of the rest.
