Forecasts

Lyness Dancer (6/4), The Dark Edge (2/1), Reforme (9/2), Getuptheyard (15/2), Calagogo (12/1), Bahtiyar (14/1)

THE DARK EDGE fell on his sole previous start over fences back in the spring but he lines up here on the back of a solid reappearance fifth over hurdles 16 days ago and looks worthy of another chance in this sphere in a race essentially lacking depth. Chase debutante Lyness Dancer could emerge next best, ahead of Getuptheyard.
