Forecasts

Liam Mera Kai (11/10), Zamek (15/8), Shade Of Winter (9/4), Minstrel Knight (7/2), Boston Savr (17/2), Irandando Has (25/1), Our Super Six (50/1), Sweeper System (125/1), This Sway (200/1), Thesoldiersminit (200/1)

A well-backed runner-up on hurdle/stable debut last month, ZAMEK has solid claims to go one better. Fairly useful Flat performer Minstrel Knight shaped encouragingly prior to falling on hurdles bow and rates a danger, along with bumper winner Liam Mera Kai who looks far from the finished article over hurdles. Shade of Winter would be interesting if recapturing the form shown in maiden/novice hurdles at Chepstow last season.
