Forecasts

Chasing Fire (8/13), Hitching Jacking (4/1), Largy Train (11/2), Imperial Merlin (8/1), Ramming Speed (20/1), Carlo Du Berlais (22/1), Teremondous (50/1), Top Ville Bobby (100/1), The Skiffle King (150/1)

Verdict

A £170,000 purchase, CHASING FIRE makes plenty of appeal on paper and impressed in landing his sole start in points last year, so the percentage call is to side with Olly Murphy's 5-y-o without the benefit of market clues. Largy Train, who tasted success on bumper debut last spring, is also worth consideration on debut for Paul Nicholls, with Imperial Merlin and Hitching Jacking worth a look.
