Forecasts

Franco De Port (8/15), Front View (7/2), Whatsnotoknow (7/1), Eleazar Des Neiges (15/2), Harrie (16/1), Daybreak Boy (25/1), Donkey Years (40/1), Broder (50/1), Banjo (80/1), Abraham (100/1), Automatic (250/1), Global Fert (250/1), Stander (250/1)

FRANCO DE PORT showed useful form over hurdles last season and is selected to make a winning start to his chase career on his return to action. Front View and Eleazar des Neiges have the potential to leave their opening efforts over fences behind and could be the pair to give him most to think about.
