Forecasts

Envol Pierji (10/3), Dubai Devils (7/2), Se Mo Laoch (6/1), Lean Araig (6/1), Minellafordollars (6/1), Getaday (13/2), Young Dev (17/2), Samurai Cracker (14/1), Fag An Bealach (14/1), Moscowsowhat (20/1), Arctic Skipper (33/1), The Trigger (50/1)

Perhaps SE MO LAOCH can stage a repeat of last year's win in this contest. Samurai Cracker did quite well in hunter chases last winter and is of some interest now handicapping for the first time in this sphere. Lean Araig arrives in form and is also on the shortlist.
