10/11

Useful hurdler who got very much back on the up with 25f Warwick success in January. Run best excused in Pertemps Final at Cheltenham and he seems sure to make a chaser. Has had a wind operation.

10/11

Easy winner of sole point and showed useful form over hurdles in 2019-20, winning 3 of her 4 starts, including a Sandown listed event. Unraced since but is in excellent hands and should make a chaser.

Forecasts

Silver Forever (10/11), Imperial Alcazar (10/11), The Cob (3/1), Flowing Cadenza (33/1)

This looks an ideal starting point for IMPERIAL ALCAZAR over fences having always looked a strong stayer over hurdles, so the galloping nature of this track is expected to suit him well. Silver Forever has been off for 22 months but she did well as a hurdler and commands plenty of respect now sent chasing, while The Cob, a Grade-2 winner over the smaller obstacles, can't be ignored either.
