Forecasts

The King Of Ryhope (10/11), Great Name That (5/2), Max's Champ (11/2), Copper Cove (9/1), Sandalwood (14/1), My Girl Katie (50/1), Earth King (80/1), Gio's Girl (80/1), Looking For Larry (150/1), Imprevu Du Large (150/1), Starwalker (150/1)

If able to build on the promise of his hurdles debut second at Carlisle, THE KING OF RYHOPE should prove hard to beat. Moving up in trip is unlikely to be an issue for this former point winner and he gets the nod ahead of Great Name That, who also made an encouraging start in this sphere at Ffos Las. Copper Cove is open to improvement and makes some each-way appeal, a remark that also applies to Max's Champ on the strength of his latest effort at Cheltenham.
