Forecasts

Classic Concorde (7/2), Judge Earle (7/2), Best Mate Dave (9/2), Blue Sans (13/2), Red Happy (7/1), Aki Bomaye (7/1), Inspector Lynley (10/1), Masterdream (10/1), Woodie Flash (12/1), Lighthouse Mill (12/1), Getthepot (14/1), Off The Planet (25/1)

If able to reproduce something akin to his recent chase form back in this sphere, JUDGE EARLE will surely take plenty of stopping off a potentially lenient hurdles mark. Aki Bomaye clearly has a fair bit to prove but he's interesting on debut for the Jack Jones yard with Harry Cobden booked, and market confidence behind this 8-y-o should be heeded. Classic Concorde is third choice ahead of the hat-trick seeking Blue Sans.
