Forecasts
Haas Boy (6/4), Sage Green (13/8), Touquet (4/1), A Great Excuse (13/2)
A dual chase/hurdles scorer back in the autumn, HAAS BOY is probably best not judged too harshly on his Exeter run when last seen in January and it would come as no surprise to see a better showing from this lower chase mark. The hat-trick seeking Touquet looks sure to be on the premises again, whilst Sage Green is worth noting for support on his chase bow.
