Forecasts

Only The Bold (2/1), Grand Mogul (9/4), Time To Tinker (9/2), Sizable Sam (9/2), Paddys Motorbike (6/1), Kaphumor (9/1), Cape Milano (10/1), Daranova (16/1), Mr Stan (33/1), Golden Grove (50/1), Robins Field (80/1), Kenyan Cowboy (125/1), Genial Hawkstone (125/1), Notnownotnever (300/1), Autumn Gold (300/1)

SIZABLE SAM showed plenty in a couple of bumpers last season and is the type to develop into a better hurdler, so is taken to make a winning start in this sphere. Time To Tinker is worth another chance to confirm the promise of his debut and is another interesting hurdles debutant, while Only The Bold fetched quite a bit at the sales after his Irish-point win early this year.
