Forecasts

Gentleman Valley (13/8), Polish (3/1), Court Master (5/1), Go Chique (7/1), Mr Tambourine Man (8/1), Irish Prophecy (16/1), Neville's Cross (18/1)

It's hard to completely rule any of these out but POLISH is the most appealing following a fine effort in defeat back in this sphere over C&D last month. He remains 8 lb below his last winning mark and gets the nod ahead of Go Chique, who scored on the back of a similar absence at Bangor in September. The hat-trick seeking Gentleman Valley will be a threat, too, if keeping it together and Irish Prophecy is of interest back hurdling off an attractive mark.
