Forecasts

Ecco (11/10), Allart (13/8), Quloob (7/1), Neff (8/1), Financial Conduct (10/1), Derek Duval (40/1), Maasai Warrior (100/1), Pinchpoint (100/1)

Not too many to concentrate on. Quloob has the Flat speed to make a good fist of it over hurdles but ultimately he may want a bit further. Neff already has a win over hurdles to his name but will need more to beat the likes of ECCO and Financial Conduct. The former did no more than was asked of him at Wincanton but last season's sixth in the Triumph means he might take some beating here. Allart hasn't been seen for a while but has plenty of scope for hurdling.
