Forecasts
Escapologist (2/1), Al Sayah (5/2), Teorie (9/2), Striking A Pose (15/2), Borderline (9/1), Paddy De Pole (12/1), Bagheera Ginge (14/1)
A host arrive with claims and it could be worth chancing the returning BAGHEERA GINGE. His exploits over fences during the second half of last year proved mixed but he returns to timber operating from a handy mark and, with plenty of solid efforts to his name around here (C&D winner) it would come as no surprise to see a bold showing. Recent C&D winner Al Sayah is steadily going the right way and feared. Teorie and Paddy De Pole complete the shortlist.
