Forecasts

Ballyburn (13/8), Teahupoo (5/2), The Yellow Clay (4/1), Bob Olinger (11/1), Home By The Lee (12/1), Rocky's Diamond (16/1), Jetara (25/1), Mystical Power (40/1)

Verdict

BALLYBURN can turn around last month's Hatton's Grace form with Teahupoo and cement his position at the head of the market for the Stayers' Hurdle at Cheltenham. Last season's Stayers' Hurdle winner Bob Olinger should also be on the premises, while Home By The Lee's record in this race makes him a dangerous one to discount.
