Forecasts

Ballyarthur (8/15), Some Are Lucky (7/2), Enola Gay (9/2)

Verdict

BALLYARTHUR looks the one to side with in this contest. He's a course winner over hurdles and produced his best effort to date over fences here earlier in the month when close second in this grade. The winner, Acting Lass, well and truly franked that form when taking a valuable Ascot handicap over a longer trip next time out off a mark of 143. This longer trip should suit and he can give Nigel Twiston-Davies a welcome winner. Enola Gay made a useful start over fences at Taunton and recently and should improve on that, ensuring he can come home ahead of Some Are Lucky, who has been out of sorts in his previous two runs.
