Forecasts

Ballyblack (5/4), Last Royal (11/4), Thelasthighking (4/1), Chavez (11/2), Wrong Shape Ball (14/1), Last Quarter (16/1), School For Scandal (33/1), Petitealfie (66/1), Lucky So And So (125/1), Off My Rocco (200/1), Vinnie's Icon (250/1), Saffron Tiger (250/1), Smartmandarcy (250/1)

CHAVEZ and Ballyblack both arrive on the back of encouraging hurdle debut seconds and could be the pair to focus on. Paul Nicholls has a line on the former given that he chased home one from his yard at Taunton so it could be significant that he's prepared to take him on with Chavez who gets a narrow vote. Thelasthighking and Last Royal are others likely to be in the shake-up.
