Forecasts

Verdict

CUBAN SUN is a tentative selection but has a proper chance if her latest effort can be overlooked. She reportedly lost a shoe last time when tackling Listed company and had previously run the eventual Listed winner to three lengths. Ashutor is the obvious danger. He went close again at Taunton last time and represents the champion trainer but has become expensive to follow. Sepal makes her belated hurdles bow following a long absence but was a fair sort on the Flat in her time so is worth considering if there is any support for her, and Be Thankful showed promise on her recent hurdles debut and could make her presence felt too.
  1. Cuban Sun
