Forecasts

Dear Sire (5/4), Dieg Man (11/8), Applesandpierres (5/2), Fair Exchange (7/2), Hollins Hill (33/1)

Verdict

DEAR SIRE and Dieg Man are two potentially decent novice chasers and preference is for the former who won a shade cheekily here on his fencing bow last month. he was a class act over hurdles and is fancied to make it 2-2 over the larger obstacles. Dieg Man is a nice prospect who won three over hurdles last term ánd represents a very good yard. He should test the selection. Applesandpierres pushed Dear Sire all the way last time and is theoretically weigted to win but he may again have to settle for a place.
