Forecasts

Le Capricieux (7/2), Samson The Man (5/1), Be Daring (11/2), Guards Chapel (6/1), Magoo (13/2), Miss Adventure (7/1), Burst Ya Bubble (7/1), Duke Of Kilcorral (16/1), Tea Time Fred (16/1)

Verdict

Not a race in which to get overly involved with, as it's more than permissible to build a case for a handful of the runners. Magoo is an unknown commodity for Paul Nicholls, but nevertheless, his opening handicap mark looks plenty cautious enough. It is also early days for a few of the others in handicap company including Duke Of Kilcorral, Samson The Man and Miss Adventure, whilst the frustrating Be Daring might find a small race when he resolves his jumping issues. However, Gary Moore seldom leaves Fontwell without a winner, and doubly represented, we'll side with LE CAPRICIEUX in the hope his stamina reserves are strong enough beyond 2m.
  1. Le Capricieux
  2. Be Daring
  3. Samson The Man
