Forecasts

Force Ten (5/4), Hunting Percival (7/4), Joseph Hobson (9/4), Sakhee's Conquest (3/1), Bells Of Barnack (7/1), Midsummer Moon (14/1)

All newcomers to the racecourse, so the betting will be invaluable. That said, champion trainer Paul Nicholls has a 33 per-cent strike-rate at his local track over the previous 12 month and his FORCE TEN is related to plenty of winners in France, ensuring the £70,000 purchase is a fair starting point. Richard Johnson boasts a fine strike-rate for the Tom Lacey yard so Hunting Percival is another likely sort alongside Joseph Hobson, while the filly Midsummer Moon gets a lot of weight from the boys, should she be good enough to make use of it.
