Forecasts

The Dubai Way (7/4), Treshnish (9/4), Le Frank (3/1), Temple Man (7/1), Ca Le Ferra (20/1), Mr Kit Cat (33/1)

An interesting race with a number of these horses surely capable of winning races over fences, including the slow learning Treshnish and the fairly weighted but returning to action chasing newcomer Temple Man. However, the form horses in the line-up are The Dubai Way and LE FRANK. The selection faces a much sterner test than when scoring with ease at Hexham last month, but that form does have substance and this embryonic chaser can defy the subsequent unwanted attentions of the handicapper (now 10lb higher).
