Forecasts

Impose Toi (8/11), Brentford Hope (11/10), Ve Day (4/1), Angel's Dream (20/1), John The Baptist (25/1), Elmejor (150/1), Alright Chap (200/1), Onnaroll (250/1)

IMPOSE TOI looked a useful prospect when opening his account for Nicky Henderson at Exeter and this dual ex-French bumper winner can fend off Brentford Hope who also looks to have better days ahead of him judged on his stylish Wincanton success. VE Day also has more to offer and appeals as the pick of the rest for place purposes.
