Forecasts

War Lord (2/1), Our Power (16/5), Mcgowan's Pass (11/2), Chirico Vallis (13/2), Albert's Back (9/1), Electron Bleu (14/1), The Last Day (16/1), Secrete Stream (25/1)

Verdict

ALBERT'S BACK took full advantage of a 9 lb lower mark than when shaping encouragingly on his only previous start in a handicap hurdle to score at Wetherby 5 weeks ago. He remains unexposed in this sphere and is taken to follow up. War Lord was impressive when winning over C&D last month so rates as an obvious threat, with McGowan's Pass another danger if building on his reappearance.

  1. ALBERT'S BACK
  2. WAR LORD (GER)
  3. MCGOWAN'S PASS
