Forecasts

Fakiera (9/4), Western Run (11/4), Il Courra (9/2), Ferdia (6/1), Cornerkova (10/1), Calagogo (10/1), Given Wings (14/1), Groveman (25/1), Paddys Planet (33/1), Magnium (33/1), Soloman Lane (50/1), Ask Charlie (66/1), Winning Rascal (66/1), Evies Vladimir (200/1), Lamberton Legend (250/1)

WESTERN RUN holds the clear edge on form so is taken to end his losing run at the chief expense of chasing newcomers Cornerkova and Fakiera who both possess winning form over hurdles and can chase home Gavin Cromwell's 7-y-o in that order.
