Forecasts

Western Ryder (1/6), Flashing Glance (11/4), Honest Vic (9/2), Blazon (6/1), Shine's Bar (16/1), Don't Act Up (20/1), The Flame (33/1), Bisoubisou (33/1), Franz Klammer (50/1), Lubatic (50/1), Midnight Magic (50/1)

The hurdles debut of classy bumper performer WESTERN RYDER is one to look forward to and he has a fine opportunity to make it a winning one here. Of those with hurdles runs Flashing Glance has comfortably the best form to date and he will take advantage if Western Ryder's jumping is an issue. Blazon may prove best of the rest despite a disappointing effort last time out.
