Forecasts

Culligran (9/5), Fever Dream (11/4), Pooroldmackley (7/2), Thank You Blue (15/2), Limerick Leader (9/1), The Dream Goes On (16/1)

The vote goes to FEVER DREAM, who has seemingly turned the corner since undergoing wind surgery, following his breakthrough success over fences at Southwell with an equally good effort when third at Fakenham where the 29f trip proved to be a stretch. Provided he copes with this significant decrease in distance (Southwell win was at around 3m), the 7-y-o should prove a tough nut to crack. Pooroldmackley is second choice ahead of Culligran and Limerick Leader.
