8/11
Unbeaten hurdler who landed novice chase at Newbury in November by a wide margin. Good second to Bravemansgame in Kauto Star at Kempton since. Remains an exciting prospect. Very much the one to beat.

Useful Irish chaser who scored at Galway in October. Pulled up in Grade 3 chase at Naas 6 days ago though, so he has a bit to prove here.

Forecasts

Ahoy Senor (8/11), Saint Palais (7/4), Ashtown Lad (10/1), Noble Yeats (22/1)

Verdict

AHOY SENOR lost nothing in defeat behind Bravemansgame in the Kauto Star at Kempton on Boxing Day and can get back to winning ways here. Saint Palais should ensure Lucinda Russell's exciting young chaser doesn't have things all his own way however if, as expected, building on his stylish Newbury success.
