Forecasts

Bold Reaction (13/8), Inoui Machin (9/2), Beny Nahar Road (6/1), Rewired (13/2), Gifted Angel (7/1), Winterwatch (11/1), Chandlers Bay (14/1), Three Cliffs Bay (25/1), Greystoke (125/1)

This looks competitive for the grade and BENY NAHAR ROAD tops a shortlist comprising six of the nine due to go to post. He hasn't helped himself by pulling hard on each of his three starts over hurdles but the increased tempo he'll experience now handicapping, together with the addition of a hood/tongue strap, could make all the difference. Gifted Angel is an obvious threat given his 4-y-o allowance, while Inoui Machin and Three Cliffs Bay are, like the selection, interesting handicap debutants.
