Forecasts

Verdict

In a novice with an open look to it, a chance is taken on bumper-winner BERTIE B making a successful switch to hurdles. Sea The Clouds should have more to come on the back of his Newton Abbot hurdle debut win last month and is feared most ahead of The Scorpion King. It's all clicked for Kingston Sunflower recently but she looks all speed so rain in the forecast is a slight concern.

  1. BERTIE B
  2. SEA THE CLOUDS (IRE)
  3. THE SCORPION KING
