Forecasts

Zainy Champ (4/1), Saint Cyr De Pail (4/1), Rangatira Jack (11/2), Bertie Wooster (6/1), Storming Nelson (15/2), Flash Gorcombe (15/2), Valirann Gold (9/1), Kingcormac (11/1), Wellwillya (14/1), Limetree Boy (40/1), Brucie Bonus (250/1)

Cases can be made for several, but it could be worth taking a chance on ZAINY CHAMP, who failed to kick on after his course success in December but could well get back on track now switched to the larger obstacles (yard have fine record with chasing debutants). Saint Cyr de Pail has also won here this winter and he can provide most resistance, with Bertie Wooster and last year's runner-up Rangatira Jack rounding off the shortlist.
