Forecasts

Gabynako (6/4), Fakiera (3/1), Fury Road (4/1), Midnight Run (4/1), French Dynamite (9/2), Alfa Mix (15/2), Minella Escape (14/1), Everglow (20/1), Max Flamingo (28/1), Embrun Mitja (50/1), Ragnar Lodbrok (50/1), Satin Sun (250/1), Krabat (300/1), Endless Cash (300/1), The Eye Of Tulla (400/1), Highstreetfashion (400/1)

This should end up being a useful novice chase. GABTNAKO wasn't quite as talented as some of these over hurdles but he made a very promising start to his chase career at Galway and is sure to build on that. French Dynamite and Midnight Run are perhaps the chief threats.
