Forecasts

Treshnish (9/4), Charmant (5/2), Tayzar (7/2), Katgary (6/1), Instant Replay (10/1), Rhymers Stone (18/1), Oliver's Gold (33/1)

Charmant looked an absolute natural over fences when winning at Sedgefield in November but races off an 8lb higher mark in a much stronger race, so this potentially lies between last Saturday's Newcastle scorer Treshnish and the October C&D winner TAYZAR. A narrow preference is for the Ruth Jefferson-trained runner who subsequently finished a rock-solid second off this revised mark (120) at Sedgefield.
