Forecasts
Wholestone (2/1), Lil Rockerfeller (2/1), Ptit Zig (4/1), Colin's Sister (10/1), Fountains Windfall (14/1), Gayebury (14/1), Missed Approach (20/1)
Colin's Sister, Missed Approach, Gayebury and Fountains Windfall have plenty to find on official ratings and, although respected, may find this company a little too hot. The same can be said of WHOLESTONE, but there are reasons for thinking he may be capable of better. He had some tough races in the build-up to the Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival and may not have been at his best despite finishing third. He was not disgraced in a valuable handicap on his comeback run and, given the hot form of his leading trainer, may be too match-sharp for favourite Lil Rockerfeller, who clearly boasts the best form on his Stayers' Hurdle second. Ptit Zig is talented, but he does not win too often these days and is opposable at his likely price.
