Forecasts

Whatswrongwithyou (1/1), Diakali (11/10), Amour de Nuit (5/2), La Cavsa Nostra (33/1)

A good run from Whatswrongwithyou will see his handicap rating surge above his current mark. The Seven Barrows raider has failed to run to his hurdles mark over fences, but he still has a chance here as his two main rivals have questions to answer. Amour De Nuit is happy in these small fields but his last run requires explanation. He is hard to dismiss with his trainer's fine record in this race but there is a chance he was drawn out his comfort zone too early last time and that seems likely again if DJAKALI sets off in customary style. He's been aimed too high on his last two starts but his previous efforts set him a class apart if on song.
