Forecasts

Bridgehead (5/2), Bestaline (16/5), War Correspondent (7/2), Common Practice (4/1), Surac (7/1), Shetland Tony (11/1), Brown Eagle (40/1), Starlight Rose (80/1), Circus Act (125/1), Tell Her Nothing (150/1), Vintage Release (150/1)

Verdict

The level of COMMON PRACTICE's Flat form means he could easily leave the form of his opening hurdle run behind so he gets the nod, although a strong market move for Gordon Elliott's French Flat recruit Bestaline would put a slightly different slant on things. Bridgehead was a promising second on his hurdle debut and looks best of the rest.
