Forecasts

Impaire Et Passe (2/13), Answer To Kayf (13/2), Waterford Whispers (7/1), Staffordshire Knot (17/2), Twoohthree (12/1), Now Is The Hour (14/1), O'Moore Park (20/1), Big Stage (50/1), Castle Field Boy (50/1), Jerk (50/1), Isle Of Sark (100/1), Dorans Law (125/1), Driscolls Hill (150/1), Prince Palace (200/1), West Is Awake (200/1)

A maiden chase with a good roll of honour and IMPAlRE ET PASSE can become yet another classy winner of the race. Now Is The Hour got some chase experience on his final start last season and might be the one to follow him home ahead of Waterford Whispers and Twoohthree.
