Forecasts
Beau Bay (15/8), Bigirononhiship (9/4), Princess Tara (3/1), Champagne Chaser (11/2), Vercingetorix (28/1)
An intriguing contest despite the small field, with a few of the horses in the line up appearing to have fairly decent futures over fences. Princess Tara lacks much experience over the larger obstacles, but certainly stays well and is a likeable mare for a much respected trainer. Beau Bay arrives in excellent order, and a reproduction of his latest Uttoxeter third to Midnight Shot should be just about good enough. However, it is the sizeable BIGIRONONHISHIP who rates as the selection. His trainer has spoken about him glowingly as a future Eider Chase contender (yard won that race in 2016 with Rockin Blues), and he basically proved himself to be a reliable and promising young staying chasing last season.
