Forecasts

Duc Des Genievres (2/1), Scarpeta (10/3), Blow By Blow (9/2), Jetz (5/1), Real Steel (10/1), Pallasator (12/1), Riders Onthe Storm (20/1), Mount Hanover (50/1)

Verdict

DUC DES GENIEVRES ran well for a long way in a Grade 1 contest at Cheltenham last time and he can register his first victory since joining the Willie Mullins stable in this Grade 2 novice contest. Blow By Blow looks likely to give the selection most to think about as he chases a hat-trick today while classy Flat performer Pallasator can register his first placed effort in Graded company by claiming third.
