Forecasts

Super Survivor (4/5), Autonomous Cloud (2/1), Pimlico Point (4/1), Bells Of Rutland (100/1), Mourzouk (200/1), Gala Des Lys (300/1)

Point-recruit SUPER SURVIVOR looked really professional when making a winning hurdles debut at Doncaster and is expected to successfully defy a penalty. Pimlico Point also fetched a six-figure sum after winning between the flags and he is feared most on the back of a promising bumper effort.
