Forecasts

Grenadier Jed (9/4), Jackstell (5/2), Believitanducan (9/2), American Sniper (13/2), Twist Of Fatecatch (8/1), Sixty Plus (8/1), Bourbali (17/2), Royal Way (10/1)

Not many of these can be ruled out with any great confidence. Two of BOURBALI's four hurdles wins have been gained over this C&D and he is interesting returned to this sphere on a workable mark. Jackstell is on a roll and he should be on the premises, while Believitanducan remains unexposed as a hurdler and also enters calculations, along with Twist of Fatecatch.
