Forecasts
Hermes Allen (8/13), Djelo (13/2), Le Patron (13/2), Colonel Harry (7/1), Nickle Back (10/1)
LE PATRON has improved with each start over fences and is 2 from 2 at this course. He gets the nod in what looks a cracking contest. Hermes Allen did little wrong behind an exceptional novice at Kempton last time and is feared most.
