Forecasts

It will be very disappointing indeed should MONDO MAN fail to open his hurdles account in this uncompetitive maiden. A smart performer on the level in France, he has kept good company since switched to hurdles and will find few more clear-cut opportunities than this. Thistle Be The One is by far the most appealing option for forecast purposes, while Lady Iris may prove to be best of the rest.
