Forecasts

C&D winner Adjutant sets the standard after scoring here 17 days ago and will be tough to topple despite conceding weight all round. He wouldn't have much to spare on best Flat form over THAQAFFA however and with the Amy Murphy team going well lately (3-9) he's given the nod for a winning start over timber. Black Noah ran well sole hurdles start in Ireland and may leave his recent AW form behind.
