Forecasts

Highway One O One (8/11), Jersey Bean (3/1), Canyouringmeback (6/1), Roll Of The Dice (11/1), Fenlons Court (16/1), Now Listen Here (25/1), Jimmy (25/1), Booborowie (33/1), Navajo War Dance (50/1), Min Tiky (50/1), Breslin (66/1), Laketour Leader (80/1), Cassivellaunus (150/1)

HIGHWAY ONE O ONE has made a very good start to his career under rules and can gain a second win over hurdles here. He has a penalty to shoulder but is some way clear of the majority of these on form. Chief danger is undoubtedly Jersey Bean, a bumper winner who ran well enough in his first start over hurdles when third at Wetherby. Fenions Court looks capable of getting involved too.
