Forecasts

Bags Groove (5/2), Verni (11/4), Storm Home (11/4), Don Bersy (5/1), Diable De Sivola (9/1), Militarian (25/1), Native Gamut (66/1), Vetoncall (100/1)

Trainer Philip Hobbs has his yard in great form at present (9/39) and his representative here VERNI can put his experience to good use by winning over fences at the third time of asking with forecast underfoot conditions likely to suit here. Bags Groove brings some useful hurdles form into this contest and he can take second ahead of Don Bersy who is another making his first appearance over fences.
