Forecasts

Totterdown (11/8), Nylon Speed (9/4), Denmead (4/1), World Premier (10/1), Locker Room Talk (16/1), Bard Of Brittany (25/1), Barley Hill (33/1), Buachaill Beag (50/1), Artic Nel (66/1), Avocet (100/1), Bonjour Steve (200/1), Mulsanne Chase (250/1)

A couple of these horses are probably more than capable of making a positive impression in this company, with the wind-operated upon World Premier noteworthy, along with the now hooded Nigel Twiston-Davies trained hurdles newcomer Locker Room Talk. Furthermore, Denmead can be expected to win a couple of modest hurdle races for Dan Skelton. However, with both Nylon Speed and TOTTERDOWN we sort of know what to expect. The selection was an emphatic C&D winner 12 days ago (for which he carries an additional penalty), but assuming that 5lb claimer Daniel Hiskett doesn't set absolutely blistering early fractions, he should follow up.
