Forecasts

Christmas In April (15/8), From Eden (5/2), Boy's On Tour (5/1), Imada (6/1), Cooking Fat (6/1), Western Rules (7/1), Away For Slates (10/1), Luckofthedraw (10/1)

None of the profiles that are on display here are particularly sound with most still learning their trade over fences. Christmas In April is likely to appreciate the drop in trip as he becomes Colin Tizzard’s first Perth runner having shown up well to a point at Chepstow last time. The Nicky Richards duo of Imada and Western Rules are viable propositions if they can tidy up their jumping while From Eden is a fascinating contender if he does take his chance. BOYS ON TOUR is 2-2 at the track and it may well be a return here will be appreciated after his two Musselburgh runs which could have acted as a tune-up for a return here albeit off the back of unseating his rider last time.
