Forecasts

Kevin's Pride (2/1), Nytol (5/2), William Butler (9/2), Promontory (13/2), Chosen Thyme (17/2), Attaboyarchie (12/1), Je Suis (33/1), Harpers Creek (40/1), Butterfly Mountain (40/1), Native Dream (50/1), Trooper Carton (66/1), Nibbles (100/1), I See Fog (150/1), Bitofajokelike (200/1), Fly Argaric (200/1)

NYTOL holds the edge on recent form and is taken to gain a first success on the back of her good recent C&D second. Gordon Elliott's hurdling newcomer William Butler has winning bumper form to her name and rates the main danger ahead of Kevin's Pride and Chosen Thyme who both have the form to play a part too.
