Forecasts
Jet Plane (10/11), Pyleigh Court (13/8), Bowtogreatness (11/2), Enqarde (50/1), Northern Reel (50/1), D'jango (100/1)
Granted a clean round of jumping, JET PLANE shouldn't have too much trouble in dispatching with these rivals and, in the process, book his ticket for Cheltenham and/or Aintree. Bowtogreatness is interesting on his hunter debut and is preferred to Pyleigh Court for forecast purposes.
