Forecasts

Garcon Doux (9/4), Bite That (7/2), Ishan (11/2), Plain Or Battered (15/2), Da Big Fella (8/1), Tangental (9/1), C'est Rien (10/1), Roman Parish (11/1), Portarlington (12/1), Starlight Cato (14/1), Fr Gilligansvoyge (14/1), Coole Arcade (16/1), Rock On Pedro (20/1), Without Exception (22/1), Theblazen Queen (22/1), Mastermacblack (25/1), Three Loud Knocks (40/1)

PLAIN OR BATTERED didn't last long on his chase bow in March but he's potentially well handicapped reverted to fences given what he's achieved over hurdles since. Ishan is open to significant improvement in this sphere given his subsequent exploits over hurdles so rates the main threat ahead of Bite That, who continues to knock on the door.
