Forecasts

Theatre Native (3/1), Party Vibes (7/2), Ilovethenightlife (9/2), A Penny A Hundred (6/1), Georgi Girl (15/2), Judicieuse Allen (17/2), Not Staying Long (10/1), Mighty Moth (10/1)

Preference is for NOT STAYING LONG, who has been a revelation since rejoining Patrick Neville and can add to her couple of Catterick wins either side of Christmas in December. Back from a short break, she can get the better of Theatre Native, who has been placed on all 3 starts over fences and is open to further progress now handicapping. Willie Mullins' pair Judicieuse Allen and A Penny A Hundred can fight out third.
