Forecasts

Thapa VC (7/2), Chola Empire (7/2), Dayman (9/2), Arctician (9/2), Abbey's Dream (5/1), Starsong (10/1), Desert Doctor (14/1), A Pint Of Bear (22/1), Fly The Nest (66/1)

Verdict

If THAPA VC is in the same form as at Southwell just before Christmas a 3 lb rise may not prevent him going in again. Dayman took a step back in the right direction at Kempton last time and is second choice ahead of Abbey's Dream.

  1. THAPA VC (IRE)
  2. DAYMAN (GER)
