Forecasts

Verdict

The vote goes to FOREVER WILLIAM, who wasn't disgraced in a competitive 21f Cheltenham handicap last time and he looks feasibly treated, particularly judged on his placed efforts in Graded company last season. Sayadam has done little wrong in this sphere and should give another good account, but if the unbeaten Lady Adare is ready to roll following 10 months off she could emerge as the main danger given her potential. Yes No Maybe So is also worthy of consideration.

  1. FOREVER WILLIAM
  2. LADY ADARE (IRE)
  3. SAYADAM (FR)
