Forecasts

Kenyan Cowboy (3/1), Delgany Monarch (7/2), Auenwirbel (9/2), Caswell Bay (6/1), Red Lion Lad (13/2), Le Tueur (9/1), Lanspark (10/1), Hard To Forget (11/1), Rabski (12/1), The Lion Dancer (14/1)

A case can be made for a few of these, but DELGANY MONARCH figures on a handy mark and is taken to open his account at the chief expense of Red Lion Lad, who is also unexposed at this trip and shouldn't be underestimated now back hurdling after an unsuccessful stint over fences. Course scorer Kenyan Cowboy must also enter calculations too.
