Forecasts

Steely Addition (11/4), Trans Express (7/1), Hidden Cargo (7/1), Pengo's Boy (8/1), Samson (10/1), Tinted Rose (10/1), Hoke Colburn (10/1), Greyed A (12/1), Khismet (16/1), After Eight Sivola (16/1), Cleni Wells (25/1), Jarlath (28/1), Hill Fort (40/1), Thundering Home (50/1)

Both Pengo's Boy and Samson have been hit by the handicapper for their respective Newton Abbot (11lb) and Uttoxeter (5lb) successes, with strong preference for the latter of that pair given his versatility in terms of trip, and his previous Exeter form (runner up in November 2016). However, the pair to concentrate upon are clearly HIDDEN CARGO and Steely Addition. They clashed at Wincanton in December when chasing home the subsequent Grade 3 Betfair Handicap Hurdle runner up Movewiththetimes (151 rated), and it looks evidently clear that both Alan King and Philip Hobbs could exploit their respective current handicap marks of 120 and 116 in the weeks and months which lie ahead.
