Forecasts

France De Reve (5/4), One Fine Man (4/1), Yabass (9/2), Rock On Rocco (17/2), Zacony Rebel (16/1), Gaelik Coast (20/1), Sorbet (20/1), Bear Valley (25/1), Passing Shadow (33/1)

Verdict

Nicky Henderson and JP McManus have made a habit of teaming up to great success with French-bred Mares in recent seasons and although FRANCE DE REVE hardly looks like the next Epatante she appeals as the most likely winner today after her Taunton second latest. Nigel Twiston-Davies charge One Fine Man ran well at Ludlow latest and he rates the biggest danger although hurdles debutant Yabass can't be taken lightly given his Flat class.
  1. France De Reve
  2. One Fine Man
