Forecasts

Geordie Des Champs (6/4), Rolling Dylan (7/4), Three Ways (3/1), Pauls Hill (8/1), Jeu De Mots (20/1)

None of the obvious three on form are rock solid, and a bit of caution is advised. THREE WAYS is given the chance to show that his Newbury run was all wrong, as he looked progressive before that, and with the yard in decent form, he can bounce back at the expense of Rolling Dylan, who put in one of his better efforts at Chepstow to win, and Geordie Des Champs, a rare winner for Rebecca Curtis this season last time out. Jeu De Mots could improve no end for the switch to fences and isn't to be dismissed.
