Forecasts

Fathers Advice (2/1), Rose Of Siena (2/1), Jack Of All Shapes (3/1), Jimmy's Jet (10/3), Bannside (8/1), Euchan Falls (10/1), Miss Valentine (12/1), Mary's Glance (18/1), Alien Encounter (18/1), Haut Berry (28/1), Solway Honey (33/1), Raythehandyman (40/1), Mrindependant (80/1)

Nicky Richards is adept at readying one in this sphere, so ROSE OF SIENA could easily be up to the task on debut in receipt of weight all round. Fathers Adivce seems sure to flourish as a stayer over hurdles but is still capable of getting involved in a race like this.
