Forecasts

Gowel Road (11/10), Statuario (13/8), Haute Estime (9/4), Hermann Clermont (7/2)

Only four runners but a fascinating handicap chase and GOWEL ROAD is taken to make a winning start in this sphere having enjoyed a very good last season over hurdles. Statuario is weighted to have a big say on the back of his breakthrough C&D win ahead of in-form Irish challenger Hermann Clermont and chasing-newcomer Haute Estime.
