Forecasts

Snuff Box (9/4), Accordingtogino (9/4), Fortescue (11/2), Diger Daudaie (7/1), Hard To Forget (15/2), Ice Cool Champs (14/1), Dieu Vivant (33/1)

The most appealing of these is ACCORDINGTOGINO, who looked an entirely different proposition equipped with cheekpieces on his second start over fences at Warwick. An 8 lb rise for that 10-length victory is tolerable and Dan Skelton's charge remains open to improvement as a chaser. Snuff Box is feared most on the back of his solid reappearance effort, while Ice Cool Champs also enters calculations.
