Forecasts

Laughing John (2/5), Uhtred Ragnarson (11/2), Dearkeithandkaty (7/1), Mad Maxios (9/1)

LAUGHING JOHN holds the clear edge on form and with progress very much on the cards from this son of Postponed he earns a confident vote to get off the mark. Uhtred Ragnarson shaped well when a debut third at Taunton and can chase home Nicky Henderson's juvenile ahead of Mad Maxios.
