Forecasts

Pittsburg (5/2), Lightening Company (4/1), Heart Above (5/1), Restandbethankful (6/1), Drumlee Myth (8/1), Mr Sundancer (10/1), Vocal Duke (14/1), Foxwood (16/1), Detective (16/1), Mojo Ego (25/1), Somebodycomegether (25/1), Zamond (33/1), Game Management (40/1), Malinheadsearovers (100/1)

Verdict

LIGHTENING COMPANY is probably the most solid option in a race where plenty arrive with something to prove. Game Management has found life hard on the Flat this summer but made a positive start to his hurdle career at the end of 2024 and rates a potential improver in his first handicap hurdle. Drumlee Myth is another going handicap hurdling for the first time and has scope from his mark judged on bumper ability. He's one to monitor closely in the betting.
