Forecasts

Lawtop Legend (13/8), Real Armani (5/2), Shattered Glass (3/1), Gameface (5/1), Gun Merchant (9/1), Flaming Glory (11/1), Emissaire (12/1), Hidden Cargo (33/1), Big Stuart (50/1)

SHATTERED GLASS put in a good round of jumping when opening his account at Chepstow and a 9 lb rise may not be enough to prevent him from going in again. Lawtop Legend is well treated back in this sphere judged on recent hurdles exploits, but quite what he will make of the return to fences remains to be seen (well held 3 previous chase starts). A similar remark applies to Gameface.
