Forecasts

Shortcross Storm (2/1), Authorizo (7/2), Admiral's Sunset (6/1), Eva's Diva (6/1), Full Spes (8/1), Sparkleandshine (10/1), Fat Sam (10/1), Saintbury Lady (16/1), My Boy James (22/1)

The vote goes to SHORTCROSS STORM, who has already proved himself better over fences than hurdles and a 5 lb rise for his recent Newton Abbot success may not be enough to anchor him. Authorizo may well build on his encouraging chase debut and is next on the list ahead of chasing debutantes Eva's Diva and Saintbury Lady.
