Forecasts

Shadow Rider (9/4), Bythesametoken (7/2), R'evelyn Pleasure (4/1), Epson Du Houx (5/1), West Cork Wildway (6/1), Big Debates (10/1)

Verdict

SHADOW RIDER has looked better than ever over hurdles the last twice and is potentially on a good mark back over fences. In-form veteran R'Evelyn Pleasure is feared most back up in trip.
