Forecasts

Gorthill (3/1), Look Dont Touch (5/1), River Vale (13/2), Ahead Of The Posse (8/1), Willywampus (8/1), Bocelli's Voice (10/1), Portarlington (10/1), Spellacy's Cross (12/1), Flash Collonges (14/1), Wajaaha (16/1), Purse Price (20/1), Doyen Magic (20/1), L'Un Deux Trois (25/1)

Verdict

GORTHILL was collared close home in a hunter over a marathon trip here last month and he could prove hard to peg back now dropped to 19.5f on this handicap debut. If able to get back on track Portarlington could be the one to chase the selection home, while Ahead of The Posse and Look Dont Touch are others to consider.
