Forecasts

Rectory Oak (7/4), Belle Jour (7/2), Arbennig (4/1), Balkardy (6/1), Jubilympics (17/2), Churchtown Glen (14/1), Toad Of Toad Hall (25/1), Milton (50/1), Miss Malarky (80/1)

Verdict

While the margin of RECTORY OAK's chase debut success at Wincanton was slim one, it almost certainly would've been greater had he not hit the second-last and there should be more to come this 7-y-o over fences. He earns the vote ahead of Balkardy, who made it second time lucky in this sphere at Plumpton and remains on a feasible mark. Arbennig and Jubilympics are others to consider.
