Forecasts
Not That Fuisse (4/6), Zen Master (5/2), Raised On Grazeon (8/1), Stoneboat Bill (10/1), Bridey's Lettuce (10/1), Bit Of A Quirke (16/1), Druid's Diamond (20/1), Not An Oscar (50/1), Golden Jet (100/1)
A race which would appear to lack any obvious strength in depth. Zen Master should be capable of building upon his recent hurdles debut, but at £35,000 would probably appear a costly enough purchase at present. Raised On Grazeon had some fair bumper form early on, but perhaps lost her way a fraction thereafter and was beaten at odds on on her most recent start 13 months ago, whilst Bit Of A Quirke was a fairly distant third to an exciting prospect over a longer trip at Hexham last weekend. Therefore, that leaves Warwick bumper winner NOT THAT FUISSE with not a great deal to beat on his hurdles debut, and the Dan Skelton trained four-year-old should prove more than capable in this sphere.
